Tribal Data Toolbox
This course provides training on the Tribal Data Toolbox, a free, stand-alone Microsoft Access database designed specifically for tribal
air programs. The Toolbox can store and manage all air monitoring data including criteria pollutants (both manual and continuous methods);
meteorological data; QC and audit data; and administrative information such as personnel, site information, and equipment tracking. The
Toolbox can generate AQS data files and a variety of reports and charts.
Topics include:
- Entering and modifying personnel, site, and equipment data
- Entering and using Quality Control (QC) data
- Importing continuous and manual (filter) method data files
- Importing meteorological data files
- Qualifying (flagging) and invalidating data
- Generating reports and charts both as summary information and to assist in interpreting data
- Generating AQS-formatted files from raw data files
Who Should Take This Course:
This course is designed for tribal environmental professionals who are currently monitoring or collecting data for at least one criteria
pollutant or for meteorological conditions. This is an advanced course; applicants should have completed ITEP's Air Pollution Technology
(TECH) course before attending. ITEP's Air Monitoring Data Management course is also strongly recommended
as preparation for the Toolbox training.
Course Structure and Approach:
This course includes extensive hands-on computer exercises as well as textual material. Participants are expected to have an
intermediate-level working knowledge of Microsoft Windows (navigating, opening, moving, and saving files, etc). Although the course
is structured around a Microsoft Access database, the database is form-driven and user-friendly; therefore no previous Access
experience is necessary.
Prerequisites:
- INTRO, INTRO/OUTREACH, INTRO/COMP, or Air Quality in AK Native Villages
- COMP, INTRO/COMP, or Basic Source Assessment/COMP
- TECH
