As I stated last week, ALOHA is out and I am hand coding the algorithms for isolation zones.
The information will be coming from the Emergency Response Guide which provides an initial radius for isolation and an extended distance downwind.
I have succeeded in creating the 2D plot mathematically. The developement page was written in Classic ASP, and the coding changed the CSS for plotting 36 images (1 dot for every 10*) in a semi-circle upwind from the (fixed) source, and an ellipse...

Datasets Collection

Posted 02-26-2008 at 07:24 PM by George Altieri

Prior to that I had done quite a bit using the MapPoint Control embedded into an Access db. This was actually started from another Eric prject, which tracked Chinese resteraunts. I work with emergency services so I put together an application that was based on all...
