A technique for locating a source of odor which is considered to be a community air pollution nuisance, PONG2, was described in Paper I. Selected members of the public are asked to record the times at which they notice an unpleasant odor. A local meteorological station supplies the Pasquill stability and the wind-speed and direction for the locality at the time of complaint. This data is used to determine a region upwind of the location of the complaint in which the source of odor may lie. By overlaying the different regions generated by different complaints, PONG2 identifies the most probable location of the odor source. In this paper an enhanced form of PONG2 is used to identify odor sources when several may be involved. Simulations suggest a rule of thumb for deciding when a location identified by PONG2 should be considered to be a likely source of odor. The technique is applied to data from a survey conducted near Melbourne, Australia. |
