SMOKE-MOVES Tool Components   Release News

Meteorological data preprocessor: Met4moves prepares spatially and temporally averaged temperature and relative humidity data for use by MOVES and SMOKE

MOVES model processing: (1) MOVES driver script creates importer files and the MOVES input file (runspec), which specifies the characteristics of the particular scenario to be modeled. (2) MOVES post-processing script formats the MOVES emission lookup tables by SCC for SMOKE

SMOKE model processing: Process emissions from both on-road and off-road mobile sources based on MOVES-based emission rate lookup tables and meteorology data from Met4moves to create hourly gridded speciated air quality model-ready input files

SMOKE-MOVES Integration Tool release

The UNC Institute for the Environment and ENVIRON, in cooperation with the U.S. EPA, is pleased to announce the release of SMOKE-MOVES Integration Tool

SMOKE-MOVES tool provides scripts to automate the emission rate calculations for the purpose of estimating mobile-source emissions for air quality modeling.

New Requirements: The SMOKE-MOVES tool requires additional vehicle population inventory data as input for estimating mobile-source emissions from off-road emission processes.

New Terminology: Reference Countys, Fuel Months, emission processes grouped into rate-per-distance (RPD), rate-per-vehicle (RPV), and rate-per-profile (RPP)
