Combining Ordinary Kriging with wind directions to identify sources of industrial odors in Portland, Oregon
This study combines Ordinary Kriging, odor monitoring, and wind direction data to demonstrate how these elements can be applied to identify the source of an industrial odor. The specific case study used as an example of how to address this issue was the University Park neighborhood of Portland, Oregon (USA) where residents frequently complain about industrial odors, and suspect the main source ...
متن کاملUsing Archived Its Data to Automatically Identify Freeway Bottlenecks in Portland, Oregon
Bottlenecks are key features of any freeway system and their impacts are of increasing importance as congestion worsens in urban areas. In Oregon, a freeway data archive known as PORTAL records measured count, occupancy, and speed data from over 600 locations at 20-second intervals. This archive has enabled development of online freeway performance and reliability analysis tools. This paper des...
متن کاملOrdinary kriging for on-demand average wind interpolation of in-situ wind sensor data
We have developed a domain agnostic ordinary kriging algorithm accessible via a standardsbased service-oriented architecture for sensor networks. We exploit the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) standards. We need on-demand interpolation maps so runtime performance is a major priority. Our sensor data comes from wind in-situ observation stations in an area approximate...
متن کاملIce nucleation by ordinary Portland cement
Portland cement was studied for its nucleating ability by the freezing behaviour exhibited of drops produced from aqueous suspension of Portland cement vis-a-vis of drops produced from suspensions of AgI, 2AgI.NaI and PbI,. I t is revealing to note that, at temperature colder than 5"C, Portland cement is as potent an ice nucleant as is either 2AgIaNaI or PbI,. At temperatures approaching 5"C, P...
