New WebGIS Data: NASADEM
WebGIS provides access to global geophysical data for air dispersion modeling, risk assessment, and other technical applications. Lakes Software’s commercial products – such as AERMOD View, CALPUFF View, and more – integrate WebGIS to automatically download terrain and land use data directly into projects.

Lakes Software Products: Working with Overlays
One of the cornerstones to working with Lakes Environmental Software products is the drawing area. This is where all objects and layers are displayed for viewing and editing. One tool users have to properly control what is displayed in the drawing area is the Overlays tab on the Tree View.

AERMOD View: Choosing Pollutants
AERMOD, one of the most widely-used air dispersion models in the world for analyzing ambient air pollutant concentrations, is typically applied for a wide variety of buoyant and neutrally-buoyant releases. One recurring question about the model is what pollutants it can (or cannot) model. Coded into the model is a list of pollutant types used to identify the pollutant being modeled for a particular run.
