An Introduction to MOVES: Project Level Modeling FHWA Resource Center EPA Office of Transportation and Air Quality cxEPA EPA-420-B-09-019 ------- V>EPA Outline • Introduction • Defining the Project • Creating the MOVES Runspec • Entering the Project Level Data Project Domain/Scale is the finest level of modeling in MOVES. It allows the user to model the emission effects from a group of specific roadway links and/or a single off-network common area. The definition of a roadway link is a section of any road where a vehicle is moving for more than three seconds. ------- v>EPA Introduction ^^^^^^H The National Academy of Sciences suggested that EPA add a 'microscale' model domain to its emission modeling 'toolkit' Project level allows MOVES modeling at the 'Link' level - Roadway links - Off-network link Project level models the 'average' conditions on a set of connected link(s). It does not perform 'SimCity type simulations' or traffic demand modeling 0 An off-network common area may include project boundaries where vehicle starts, extended idling and evaporative emissions are produced. The use of the Project Domain/Scale requires the user to completely define the individual project (i.e., specify all individual roadway links and/or off-network common area). The MOVES Project Domain/Scale will utilize MOVES emission rates and other factors to correctly calculate emission inventory results for the user's defined project. ------- V Introduction (cont.) Utilizes MOVES emission rates and correction factors • It does NOT utilize the regular MOVES growth, VMT or population data. These must be supplied by the user. • It allows the user to specify only one combination of ... per run - County - Year - Month - Hour A ------- v>EPA Introduction (cont.) All pollutants covered Chained pollutants require inputs for the entire 'chain' Processes covered - Running - Start - Extended Idle - Brake and Tire Evaporative processes NOT Covered Only Calculation Type of "Inventory" may be done. 5 DRAFT MOVES2009 is not capable of modeling any evaporative emission processes when using Project Domain/Scale. EPA plans to remedy this feature in future versions of MOVES. Only the Inventory Calculation Type may be selected in conjunction with the Project Domain/Scale. ------- ------- © vvEPA Define the Project Basic Schematic of the Project ------- Project Assumptions Only two links (inbound and outbound from a parking lot) exist. • The two links and the off-network link are independent The off-network link consists of parking, extended idle and starts. Only heavy-duty combination long-haul diesel trucks are present on the roadway Only nitrogen oxide emissions are included. Only one hour of operation is considered. ------- Specific Project Data (parameters) Parameter Name Parameter Location County Calendar Year Month Weekday/Weekend Time Temperature Humidity Roadtype of links Washtenaw County, Ml 2009 January Weekday 11:00 PM to 11:59:59 PM 28.5 F 69.5 % Rural Unrestricted Access ------- x>EPA Specific Project Data (link data) Parameter Name Parameter Roadway Link Length Link Traffic Volume - In Link Traffic Volume - Out Link Average Speed - In Link Average Speed - Out 0.998 miles 100 trucks per hour 10 trucks per hour 28.5 miles per hour 28.5 miles per hour ------- © vvEPA Specific Project Data (Off-network data) Parameter Name Average Vehicle Population 200 vehicles Start Fraction 0.03 Extended Idle Fraction 0.90 Parked Vehicle Fraction 0.09 ------- v>EPA Specific Project Data (start data) OpmodelD Code 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 200 Operating Mode Description Soak Time < 6 minutes 6 minutes <= Soak Time < 30 minutes 30 minutes <= Soak Time < 60 minutes 60 minutes <= Soak Time < 90 minutes 90 minutes <= Soak Time < 120 minutes 120 minutes <= Soak Time < 360 minutes 360 minutes <= Soak Time < 720 minutes 720 minutes <= Soak Time Extended Idle Operating Mode Fraction 0.00 0.05 0.30 0.10 0.50 0.00 0.00 0.05 1.00 12 ------- © vvEPA Spreadsheet Inputs DriveScheduleSecondLink OffNetworkLink ZoneMonthHour (temperature) LinkSourceTypeHour SourcetypeAgeDistribution FuelSupply Link OpModeDistribution ------- ------- File Edit Pre Processing Action Post Processing Settings Help Scale Time Spans ' Geographic Bounds El J VehiclesJEquipment Road Type Pollutants And Proce Manage Input Data Set [+1 j Strategies El J Output Advanced Performan Description: 'reject level example for EPA / DOT training class| 15 ------- File Edit Pie Processing Action Post Processing Tools Settings Help Domain.iScale O National Use the default national database with default state and local allocation factors.

Operating modes are llmodes"of vehicle activity that have distinct emission rates. For example, "running" activity has modes that are distinguished by their Vehicle Specific Power and instantaneous speed. "Start" activity has modes that are distinguished by the time the vehicle has been parked prior to the start ("soak time"). For a given source type, hour/day combination, roadway link and pollutant / process combination, the operating mode distribution must sum to one. ------- MOVES Project Data Manager Operating Mode Distribution Export Most Recent Execution Data Export imported Data Clear Imported Data Operating Mode Distribution 36 ------- : MOVES Project Data Manager g Operating Mode Dlslnbmion | tf flBeasttibmion J Fuel Suppfr I d1 Meteorology Data j Togls j IHH j \, .WtttWMMMlX.

The 'start fraction' field is a number from 0 to 1.0 which specifies the fraction of this population which has a 'start' operation in the given hour. The 'extendedldle fraction' field is a number from 0 to 1.0 which specifies the fraction of the population which has had an 'extended idle' operation in the given hour. Finally, the 'parked vehicle fraction' field is a number from 0 to 1.0 which specifies the fraction of the 'vehicle population' which have been parked in the given hour. ------- vvEPA Off-Network Tab ^^^^^m Source Type Vehicle Population - Average number of off-network vehicles Start Fraction - Average fraction of the population which has been started during the hour (may be greater than unity if the average vehicle is started more than once per hour) Extended Idle Fraction - Only used for long-haul diesel trucks (0-1.0 range) Parked Vehicle Fraction - Only used for Evaporative, and is currently inactive. 59 For example, a vehicle population of 10 long-haul combination trucks with a start fraction of 0.5, an extended idle fraction of 0.25 and a parked vehicle fraction of 0.5 implies that the project includes the emissions associated with 5 starts, 150 minutes of extended idling and 300 minutes of parking for this sourcetype. Note Draft MOVES2009 computes extended idle emissions only for long-haul combination trucks, not for other sourcetypes; thus the extendedldleFraction is ignored for sourcetypeids other than 62. Note Draft MOVES2009 does not compute evaporative emissions at the Project Domain/Scale; thus, the "parked vehicle fraction" is ignored. ------- iourceTypelDvehiclePopulation startFraction extendedfdleFraction parkedVehicleFraction 62 200 0.03 0.9 0.09 10 TL ji 13 -M Jl jm J7 IB jg- 20 "y\_ ~n w ^ > n / ftjelsuppiy / sourcetypeagedistnbution / links \ OffNetworkLink /1 < • Draw' ^ Auto5hapes' \ 60 ------- vvEPA Project GUI Buttons Export Default Data - Fuel Supply and Meteorology tabs only Export Most Recent Execution Data - Exports results from a previous MOVES run - MOVES Execution Data must exist - Exports to an Excel Spreadsheet - Might be useful for building additional project level inputs Export Imported Data - Exports data contained in the project level database back to an Excel Spreadsheet - Useful for checking data / debugging 61 ------- *, MQVBflrojf pt Data Manager.

Actual data is not contained in the XML file. - Project Level Databases can be run using DOS command line scripts Tools tab is not fully developed or supported. 67 setenv Java gov.epa.otaq.moves.master.commandline.MOVESCommandLine -e DEBUG -i Task816CountyDataManager\importAIIFromTemplates.xml Command Line Example Once the GUI is used to create an importer XML file, it can be edited and executed via the command line. Remember that when using the command line, text output is not sent to the screen but instead stored in MOVESBatch.log. An example command line is: setenv Java gov.epa.otaq.moves.master.commandline.MOVESCommandLine -e DEBUG -i Task816CountyDataManager\importAIIFromTemplates.xml Be sure to place all of this on one line. The "-e DEBUG" portion ensures that all messages will be captured, even if just informational. The "-i" option directs MOVES to the XML file that describes the import actions to occur. Note that this XML file essentially contains a RunSpec within it, thus allowing wildcards even when done via the command line. ------- MOVES Project Data Manager '^MitwatMMM*' I,.**'** 4,-'' ',*#*!
