Course Description:
This course will provide training on the Tribal Data Toolbox, a completely 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, as well as administrative information such as personnel, site information, and equipment tracking. The Toolbox is capable of AQS raw data file generation, as well as many 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 you in interpreting your data
- Generating AQS formatted raw data files
Who Should Attend:
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 Monitoring Data Management course prior to attending.
Course Structure and Approach:
This course will include extensive hands-on computer exercises and activities as well as lectures. Participants will be asked to bring copies of recent data sets for use during class activities. Participants will be expected to have an intermediate-level working knowledge of Microsoft Windows. 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.
Pre-Requisites:
- Introduction to Tribal Air Quality (or equivalent experience)
- Air Quality Computations (or equivalent experience)
- Air Pollution Technology
- Air Monitoring Data Management
