Report Name: Google Earth 3D Action Levels (example)

File Name: EarthSoft.Interfaces.Google.dll

Dependencies: Saved Analytical Results user report

Software: EQuIS Professional

Source: EQuIS Professional install

Language: English

Output Type: Keyhole Markup Language (*.kmz)1, 2, 3

 

Description: This report compares the results of a saved Analytical Results report to user selected action level(s), and exports the content as a *.kmz. When viewed in Google Earth, the concentrations of each parameter will be displayed as a 3D cylinder for a location and colored based on the action level. Prior to using this report, please review the Submission of Content Warning for Google Earth reports as well as the commercial license requirements.

 

Installation Instructions: This report assembly is part of the EQuIS Professional installation. No additional installation steps are necessary.

 

Overview:

The input parameters for this report require the user to select a saved Analytical Results Report and an action level.

 

In order for locations to appear in this report:

 

•DT_COORDINATE.COORD_TYPE_CODE must be like "*LAT*LONG*".

•DT_COORDINATE.IDENTIFIER must be "Primary".

•DT_LOCATION.LOC_TYPE must be populated.

•DT_LOCATION.SYS_LOC_CODE must be populated.

 

DT_LOCATION.LOC_DESC must be populated before locations are clickable.

 

This report includes data over the selected date range. You can drag the time slider or press the Play button to watch the values change over time.

 

 

 

 

The output of the report shows concentrations of each chemical represented as a vertical cylinder at each location. The height of the cylinder represents the amount of concentration (taller cylinders show greater amount of chemical). The color of the cylinder is determined by the selected action level:

 

•RED: Indicates that the concentration exceeds the action level (DT_ACTION_LEVEL_PARAMETER.ACTION_LEVEL) for that chemical.

•YELLOW: Indicates that the concentration exceeds the warning level (DT_ACTION_LEVEL_PARAMETER.WARNING_LEVEL) for that chemical, but does not exceed the action level.

•GREEN: Indicates that the concentration is below the warning level (or below the action level if the warning level is NULL) for that chemical.
