Review

The group reviewed minutes from the Oct. 20 Tools workgroup call. Most of the action items had been completed, however the model-to-obs data were still being processed for the 2011a/b platforms.

Rodger presented two documents to the group, one was a summary of the current IWDW tools, which documents their current status, including functionality, data sets or modeling platforms included, and plans for future development. The other document, referred to as 'MPE x IWDW', lists key MPE products identified in the EPA MPE recommendations document and aligns these with either current or prospective IWDW tools. The MPE IWDW document is essentially a large table that lists MPE products by modeling activity (such as emissions and PGM) and maps these to IWDW tools. Rodger led the group through the emissions section of the document. The Workgroup identified a need to develop an emissions GIS that will provide a number of MPE products not currently available on current IWDW Tools. A county level emissions GIS can also leverage the IWDW database currently in place for the Emissions Review Tool, thereby enabling rapid development by leveraging current backend infrastructure.
