Input Guidelines for Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator Model, Volume 1: Practitioners’ Handbook: Regional Level Inputs

TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 210: Input Guidelines for Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator Model, Volume 1: Practitioners’ Handbook: Regional Level Inputs provides users of the Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator Model (MOVES) with tools to help estimate emissions from highway vehicles. Specifically, this handbook provides resource material on developing inputs for a “regional” (county, multicounty, or state) level of application, using the County Domain/Scale of MOVES.

In addition to this report, NCHRP Web-Only Document 210 NCHRP Web-Only Document 210 Volume 2: Practitioners’ Handbook: Project Level Inputs explores the development of inputs for a project level of analysis, using the Project Domain/Scale of the Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model. NCHRP Web-Only Document 210 Volume 3: Final Report documents the research process for developing Volumes 1 and 2, and provides additional documentation not included in the handbook.

Example dataset 1, example dataset 2, example dataset 3, and the MOVES tools are available for download. Please note that these files are large and may take some time to download.
