Limits

A screening estimate, not a permitting model.

This simplified version considers one point source and receptors along one alignment. Complex cases require site-specific meteorology, a full domain and documented modeling.

  1. 01
    QC
    Always check units, parameter validity and meteorological conditions.
  2. 02
    Screening
    Use the result as a preliminary analysis for simple scenarios.
