• Abstract: Earthwork-related locations (ERLs), such as construction sites, earth dumping ground, and concrete mixing stations, are major sources of urban dust pollution (particulate matters). The effective management of ERLs is crucial and requires timely and efficient tracking of these locations throughout the city. This work aims to identify and classify urban ERLs using GPS trajectory data of over 16,000 construction waste hauling trucks (CWHTs), as well as 58 urban features encompassing geographic, land cover, POI and transport dimensions. We compare several machine learning models and examine the impact of various spatial-temporal features on classification performance using real-world data in Chengdu, China. The results demonstrate that 77.8% classification accuracy can be achieved with a limited number of features. This classification framework was implemented in the Alpha MAPS system in Chengdu, which has successfully identified 724 construction cites/earth dumping ground, 48 concrete mixing stations, and 80 truck parking locations in the city during December 2023, which has enabled local authority to effectively manage urban dust pollution at low personnel costs.

  Construction waste hauling trucks (or slag trucks') are among the most commonly seen heavy-duty diesel vehicles in urban streets. This paper addresses the practical problem of predicting levels of slag truck activity at a city scale during heavy pollution episodes. A deep ensemble learning framework (coined AI-Truck) is designed, which employs a soft vote integrator that utilizes Bi-LSTM, TCN, STGCN, and PDFormer as base classifiers.
