Model interface

Operate a particle model through a coherent geographic project.

EW_LAPMOD makes LAPMOD inputs and outputs easier to prepare, inspect, and reuse without hiding the scientific structure of the model.

The interface reads CALMET meteorological output prepared by the user or supplied through MeteoData. Sources and discrete receptors can be entered numerically or placed on the embedded map. Input consistency checks run before LAPMOD files are created.

After simulation, receptor concentration time series can be plotted and binary model output can be processed into annual averages, percentiles, running averages, and other required statistics.

01Configure

Define particle-model sources, receptors, buildings, and emissions.

02Assemble

Merge multiple source definitions into one emission file.

03Inspect

View CALMET meteorology, terrain, and land-use information.

04Analyze

Plot receptors and produce gridded concentration statistics.

Capabilities

Prepare, run, and understand particle simulations.

01

Input assistance

Insert and check LAPMOD parameters through an organized interface.

02

Emission schedules

Configure constant, regular, and arbitrary time-varying source rates.

03

Source merging

Automatically combine all configured sources into a single emission file.

04

Building geometry

Read building footprints and geometry from KML files.

05

CALMET inspection

Extract meteorology at any point and plot terrain and land use.

06

Output visualization

Plot receptor concentrations and display gridded results over the base map.

Project workflow

Connect emissions, meteorology, simulation, and output.

The GUI coordinates LAPMOD project components while retaining direct access to the open-source modeling system.

  1. 01Load CALMET meteorological output for the domain.
  2. 02Define sources, emission schedules, buildings, and receptors.
  3. 03Check consistency and generate LAPMOD input files.
  4. 04Run the LAPMOD particle simulation.
  5. 05Plot discrete-receptor time series immediately after the run.
  6. 06Postprocess binary output into concentration statistics and maps.
