CALRoads View - Hourly Concentration Output in CAL3QHCR
CALRoads View includes three mobile source air dispersion models: CALINE4, CAL3QHC, and CAL3QHCR. These models are used for predicting air pollution concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), particulate matter (PM), and other inert gases from idle or moving vehicles.

CALRoads View - Import Group Links
CALRoads View makes it very easy to input links to a modeling project using one of the CALINE series of models (CALINE, CAL3QHC, CAL3QHCR). While it’s common to graphically depict links, CALRoads also allows modelers to import links using an Excel spreadsheet template. This is useful for modelers who have all of their inputs defined or those who have a lot of data to input. The template spreadsheet is found in the C:\Lakes\CALRoads View\Templates folder.

WRPLOT View - Comparing Wind Roses
Wind roses are used to graphically depict wind frequency. Directly comparing wind roses from two different sets of meteorological data is a great way to compare how similar the data is. This is commonly done when comparing observational data to that generated with a meteorological model such as WRF or MM5.
