TRAQS User Guide Page 147 12. REPORTS The Reports window is displayed when you press the Reports button available on the TRAQS Main window. The Reports window is composed of two sections. On the left, the Reports List displays a list of available reports. On the right, the Reports View area is where the selected report is displayed. The following are the types of reports available in TRAQS:  AERMOD Results: These reports will show the highest calculated design value for all pollu- tants and averaging periods being modeled. For cases where design values exceed air quality

TRAQS User Guide Page 148 standards (NAAQS), these values will be listed and displayed in maroon color. The AERMOD Results reports will list the receptor location, AERMOD concentration results, user-specified background concentration, and the calculated design value after the rounding convention is ap- plied. See image below for an example.  MOVES Emission Rates: These reports show information for the calculated emission rate by pollutant and link ID. Link information such as description, length, area, volume, and average speed are also provided as well as the MOVES aggregated emission rate and the calculated AERMOD emission rate. See image below for an example. Functionality of Buttons Press this button to print the contents of the selected report.

TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 246: Volume 1: TRAQS User Guide provides guidance for using the TRansportation Air Quality System (TRAQS). TRAQS is an open source software designed to conduct mobile air quality assessments for three primary purposes:

  1. Project-Level Conformity (Hot-Spot Analyses)
  2. National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
  3. General Transportation Planning

TRAQS is designed to streamline the model process and minimize any limitations of standalone software packages by integrating individual models and databases into a user-friendly, intuitive Graphical User Interface. It provides access to advanced modeling tools and mapping features. Overall, TRAQS offers the capabilities necessary to complete a Project-Level air quality analysis with increased accuracy and efficiencies.

Download the open source software as well as NCHRP Web-Only Document 246: Volume 2, TRAQS: A Combined Interface for Project-Level Air Quality Analysis, which accompany the Users Guide.

Note: TRAQS functions with versions of air quality models current as of December 2016: MOVES2014a and EMFAC2014.

TRAQS is written in Python, an open-source programming language. Developers or users who wish to customize or enhance TRAQS may download the source code from the project web page.
