| Abstract |
Atmospheric dispersion modeling programs such as the Climatological Dispersion Model (CDM), Air Quality Display Model (AQDM), and Implementation Planning Program (IPP) are among the most basic tools used for evaluation of air quality and State Implementation Plans (SIP's). Since emissions data comprise the most important input information for these models, any factor affecting the availability and completeness of the emissions data has a significant impact on the results of the modeling programs. Procedures for formatting emissions from point sources are well defined; however, area source emission data present problems. Usually the smallest geographic unit for which accurate primary data are available is the county. These data must be disaggregated and appropriately allocated to smaller areas to provide an adequately detailed input. The five major computer gridding programs and associated subroutines contained in this revised manual provide an objective method for allocating county-level data to grid squares selected on the basis of demographic features and sized to give appropriate detail for input to air quality modeling programs.
