Goal: To gather existing NO2 data archives into a single DVD-based data explorer software product so that scientists, data providers, application developers, and decision makers can explore not only the existing data corpus (or a representative sample) but also the potential use cases for data analysis by decision makers. NOTE: this is not a final product for use by decision makers, but a prototype that helps move the conversation along among the various stakeholders in the NO2 data system. | Goal: To gather existing NO2 data archives into a single DVD-based data explorer software product so that scientists, data providers, application developers, and decision makers can explore not only the existing data corpus (or a representative sample) but also the potential use cases for data analysis by decision makers.

Goal: To gather existing NO2 data archives into a single DVD-based data explorer software product so that scientists, data providers, application developers, and decision makers can explore not only the existing data corpus (or a representative sample) but also the potential use cases for data analysis by decision makers. NOTE: this is not a final product for use by decision makers, but a prototype that helps move the conversation along among the various stakeholders in the NO2 data system.
Technology: DIAL will combine run-time IDL data analysis and visualization tools with Adobe Director GUI authoring to create the prototype application.
NEEDS: We are tool builders, we need help from the atmospheric scientists/science users to know what the preliminary use cases are for NO2 data analysis on the desktop. For example, there is a GOME NO2 "climatology" for NO2... how might this be useful?
- Which are the top 5 data resources for NO2? We can handle any data source that IDL can handle.
- What types of manipulations are most useful? Anomalies? Animations? Zooming into locales? etc.
- Should we look only at North America? Or do we need the global data for this prototype?
- What other questions should we be asking?
Please feel free to contribute your ideas! Thanks! (Bruce, Marty, Hajime and the NO2 DDEP project team...) Email: bruce at tnms.org
NEW Questions:
Are the OMI Level 3 data from the GES Datapool the same data that are being served up by the DataFed?
Are the OMI Level 3 data from the GES Datapool the same as TEMIS uses for its monthly averages?
Is there any value in comparing the total column with the Tropo data?
