AirVision’s post-processing of data is not limited to data editing and other manual functions. Its powerful and expandable data post-processing capabilities optimize the quality assurance process.
AirVision opens up the process between data collection and final reporting through an open modular approach similar to Open Data Sources. Open Data Processors can be scheduled and triggered as defined by the you in the Task Manager to automate quality assurance while also controlling the points of data access and display, such as AIRNow and web presentation. These post-processing tasks can include:
AQI calculations and forecasts
Automatic data validation
Zero or other calibration data adjustments
Automated AQS coding
Web publishing tables, real-time charts and maps
AIRNow or real-time Exchange Network transfers
Email alarms
Emailed reports
Time skewing tape sampler data
The open approach also ensures that known data paths can be easily updated to meet changing requirements, such as future alterations in the AQI calculation process (changes based on new standards, possibly including more complex algorithms that take into consideration the synergistic health effects of PM and ozone, requiring a multi-variate algorithm to calculate a more representative measurement of health effect).
