Exercise - Air Monitoring with field exercise Air Monitoring - Classroom and Exercise
This is an eight hour course, consisting of both classroom lecture and equipment deployment. Training course will cover hazard evaluation for emergency response, the selection of chemical detection equipment and methods, including equipment limitations, and air surveillance design considerations relative to the behavior of smoke plumes and air releases. The presentation will also include an overview of VIPER, a wireless network based communications system designed to enable real time transmission of data from field sensors to a local computer, remote computer, or enterprise server and provide data management, analysis, and visualization. Based upon the given train derailment scenario, participants will select detection equipment and sensors, including placement of AreaRae units and determine appropriate benchmark targets. The field exercise will include set up of the AreaRae units with a feed to the VIPER network, including basic troubleshooting, and evaluation of data being returned. Registration is set up for either classroom presentation only or classroom presentation & field exercise, if you wish to only register for the classroom portion go to the Exercise-Air Monitoring Classroom only course and register there, rather than here.
Agenda: 8:00 am Air Surveillance for Hazardous Materials Emergencies Target audience: These lectures and exercises are designed for environmental and health professionals who would be involved in the design, deployment, and/or evaluation of air monitoring during emergency environmental events.
