Calculate estimates of pollutants across space #19

Open ericnost opened 2 months ago

ericnost commented 2 months ago

Conceptually, it works like this: Imagine each dissemination area gridded into 30x30m squares. Each one of which is estimated to receive a certain amount of CO, NOx, SOx, PM, etc. based on its proximity to various sources. The dissemination area's "allocated" pollutant amount is the average or median CO, NOx, SOx, PM, etc. amount across all its squares.
