Geospatial Analysis and Model Evaluation Software (GAMES): Integrated Web-Based Analysis and Visualization

“…Each of the sample regions incorporates some of the techniques described above. The original model simulations were completed during several research projects at NRL (Cobb et al 2008;Keen and Holland 2010). They are shown here to demonstrate the GoogleVision methods.…”

“…Introduction A Lagrangian particle-tracking algorithm was also applied to potential contaminant transport within San Francisco Bay and Mississippi Sound (Keen and Holland, 2010). This model is useful for near-field studies like that at Hunters Point, San Francisco ( Figure 5.2A) as well as longer transport paths within the full estuary ( Figure 5.2B).…”

“…The tracer and particle code, in addition to the sedimentation algorithm, were removed and formed into the HQCM (HydroQual Contaminant Model) system that includes the particle tracking model. This HQCM module was used for both Eulerian and Lagrangian simulations in several coastal transport studies (Keen and Holland, 2010).…”

Model Verification and Validation Using Graphical Information Systems Tools

“…This simulation has been described by Keen and Holland (2010). We will briefly summarize the simulation.…”
