Subject: Some
Ideas on Reports and Plots for the QA Tool
Dear Alison,
Here are some thoughts on reports and plots for inclusion in
the QA tool. A lot, if not all, of this
material will probably replicate your team’s thoughts given that both our
groups have been doing this for sometime.
Further, this is not meant to be exhaustive – just a starting point. I believe that we will have time later to
refine these ideas. As we have briefly
spoken in the past, the general thought is to put together something like the
Excel graphics package with some PAVE-like extensions.
One overarching issue that I have is “do we build a generic
Excel-like tool where the user is required to provide the data; or do we build
a tool that dips into the existing data structures and prepares canned plots
with some control over the axes descriptors (e.g., titles, scale), plot titles,
color schemes, etc.; or do we build a tool to do both?”
I have tried to include examples of the plots or
reports.
Drop me a line if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
/s/ Jim Wilkinson
> General summary report [RFE#1033655].
AR=area, BI=biogenics, EG=electric generating
utilities, NM=no-road mobile, OM=on-road mobile,
PT=stationary source other than EG. The
example is by domain, but obviously this can be done by many combinations of
nation/state/county and sub-SCC or sub-AMS codes (i.e., the proverbial roll-up
report).

> General summary report for TOG speciation. [1033659] This report is used in
conjunction with the “general summary report” to show reactivity. TOG is split into the CB-IV components of UNR
(unreactive), PAR (paraffins),
and REA (higher reactive components [ALD2+OLE+TOL+ISOP+FORM+???]). It would be good to have control over how to
lump the components. The example shows a
comparison of two episodes by subdomain, but I think
you can extract the general format for what I am thinking of.
> Bar (or line) chart of emissions. [1033665] By hour, by day, by week, and
by month. By source
category (SCC, AMS). By facility. By domain, nation,
nation/state or nation/state/county.
By pollutant.
> Spatial plots of emissions (ala PAVE…animations would
be great). [1033666] By hour, by day, by week, and by month. By source category (SCC,
AMS). Most useful plot is the gridded plot with underlying geopolitical map, but every
once in a while state and state/county spatial plots
are handy.
> Source strength spatial emissions plot (no example). [1033668] This is useful for
showing stationary sources where the size/color of a circle located on the
source indicates the magnitudes of the emissions. Typically done by facility
and by pollutant. Could also be done by SCC.
> Stack vertical distribution QA report. [1033671] Report shows
distribution of the emissions in the vertical grid structure based on plume
rise. By domain, by
nation, by nation/state, by nation/state/county. By pollutant. Could also be done by SCC. Plot could be simple mass report (note that
only one pollutant is shown, but obviously more could be put on same report)…..
…..or could be more graphical in nature….
> The Stack QA report [1033674] can also be coupled with a report of the
top emitters by stack which flags suspect stacks based on predefined criteria
(e.g., plumerise in excess of 1000 m)
