Descriptive Analysis Database
• Archive monitoring network locations, climate, emissions, wildfires, census, political, physical, and image databases
• Databases will help us build conceptual models and answer descriptive analysis questions by visualizing data (e.g. map emissions densities)
• Assist us in the general and detailed description of the meteorological setting of each site
• Over 120 GB of data archived at DRI
