Description

Data generator that pulls chemical concentrations from 16 ground monitoring sites (2 Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Stations, 14 Special Purpose Monitoring Stations). Can be filtered by site, parish and temporal resolution.

Potential Uses
• Find measured levels of chemical in an area
Limitations
Limited spatial and temporal coverage (samples typically only collected every 6 days), and limited ability to characterize peak concentrations since concentrations represent the average concentration over the sampling period (which is often 3, 8, or 24 hours).
