A comprehensive data base has been stored on magnetic tape. This data base was collected and used by SRI International in the development of a methodology for the description and management of the atmospheric resource (i.e., air quality) on the near roadways. Specifically, the data base contains parameters that are oriented toward understanding the interactive role played by vehicle traffic features, meteorological parameters, and roadway and adjacent building configurations in the transport and diffusion of pollutants on the local or microscale. This manual describes the content and format of this data base. It also presents sample program fragments that can be used to access the data base.
