14 Some advantages of AMFIC web data base: By breaking huge global files to many gridded ascii files we make the process of those data easier for users interested in specific spotsBy breaking huge global files to many gridded ascii files we make the process of those data easier for users interested in specific spots This analysis enables easy validation of several products for selected regions and comparison with model resultsThis analysis enables easy validation of several products for selected regions and comparison with model results The users can request either plots or ascii files even for a quick look in a few secondsThe users can request either plots or ascii files even for a quick look in a few seconds Users interested in global data sets can just download the whole dataset using Wget or a web ripper softwareUsers interested in global data sets can just download the whole dataset using Wget or a web ripper software The data base will be perfect even for educational purposesThe data base will be perfect even for educational purposes

AIRSAT web data base integration: Satellite Earth simulator-AIRSAT http://www.satellite-earth-simulator.com/ Satellite Data Sources: TOMS (Earth Probe TOMS)TOMS (Earth Probe TOMS) SCIAMACHY (ENVISAT)SCIAMACHY (ENVISAT) GOME (ERS-2)GOME (ERS-2) MODIS (AQUA)MODIS (AQUA) Meteorological Data Source: NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis ProjectNCEP/NCAR Reanalysis Project

16 2. AIRSAT web data base integration: Meteorological parameters Temperature Temperature Humidity Humidity Pressure Pressure Wind speed Wind speed Precipitation Precipitation Atmospheric data Ozone vertical column Ozone vertical column NO 2 vertical column NO 2 vertical column Aerosol Optical Thickness over ocean Aerosol Optical Thickness over ocean Cloud Optical Thickness Cloud Optical Thickness Cloud Top Temperature Cloud Top Temperature Optical Depth Land and Ocean Optical Depth Land and Ocean Atmospheric Water Vapour Atmospheric Water Vapour Ocean data Chlorophyll Chlorophyll Sea surface temperature, day/night Sea surface temperature, day/night Daily assimilated and gridded data sets could be included in this part of the data base (e.g. TEMIS 0.25x0.25 SO 2 gridded products)

17 An Example from AIRSAT: Data from WDC-RSAT (World Data Center for Remote Sensing of the Atmosphere http://wdc.dlr.de) geographical area data set time period

20 3. Automatic Plume Detection: Within AMFIC data base we initiate the implementation of image analysis techniques for the automatic plume detection Three steps procedure: 1.Reconstruct the missing parts of maps (images), which lack information due to the daily coverage stripes of several satellite instruments or due to cloudiness, albedo characteristics etc, with the use of Cellular Automata (CA). 2.Extract only the regions on the map which are covered by significant plumes with the use of a cut-off filter. 3.Calculation of the area covered from each plume.

21 Cellular Automaton approach: A cellular automaton requires: 1.a regular lattice of cells covering a portion of a four dims space 2.a set of variables C attached to each cell giving its local state at the time t=0, 1, 2, … 3.a rule R={R 1,R 2,…,R m } which specifies the time evolution of the states in the following way: where designate the cells belonging to a given neighbor- hood of cell where designate the cells belonging to a given neighbor- hood of cell In our case each cell is represented by an image pixel The rule R applied here is the extraction of the average from pixels in the neighborhood (Moore neighborhood ) that contain information
