Calibration Data Sample Clauses

Calibration Data. Adapted from Xxxxxx (2015) Calibration of ITHIM for the Nashville implementation involved data on baseline demographics, travel behavior, vehicle miles traveled, emissions of particulate matter smaller than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM2.5), roadway injuries, physical activity participation, and current disease burdens (Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx, 2017). Demographic data were sourced from U.S. Census, while the MTTHS provided most of the travel-related data, including travel by means of walking and bicycles. The Tennessee Department of Safety provided data on traffic injuries and Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation PM2.5 data. Data on the incidences of diseases shown in Table 21 were provided by the Tennessee Department of Health.

Calibration Data. All measurements, both before and after adjustments or repairs shall be recorded. It is required that the accuracy of the instrument be recorded before any adjustments or repairs are made. The data sheet must identify the standards and procedure used to calibrate the instrument.

Calibration Data. Travel behavior data such as average daily distances traveled by walking and bicycling were derived from the 2012 California Household Travel Survey (CHTS) (NuStats, 2013). Travel demand models of the MPOs (i.e., San Francisco Bay Area, Southern California, and San Xxxxxxx Valley) as well as the California Statewide Travel Demand Model (i.e., for Sacramento Area and San Diego County) (West, 2016) provided estimates of daily vehicle miles traveled (VMT) for cars and trucks. Burden of disease of the study area was measured by deaths and disability adjusted life years (DALYs), which represent the sum of years of life lost to premature death and years of living with disability. Data on deaths and DALYs were obtained from the 2010 U.S. Global Burden of Disease, GBD (IHME, 2019). The disease burden data for each of the California MPOs were derived by adjusting the U.S. data with the ratio of mortality rates between counties in the MPO and the U.S. Data on weekly non-travel physical activity for leisure and occupational activities were obtained from the California Health Interview Survey (UCLA Center for Health Policy Research, 2012). Data on traffic fatalities and injuries were obtained from a statewide database of traffic collisions in California (SafeTREC, 2011). GHGE from cars and light trucks were estimated for each MPO region from modeled emission factors in 2010 (CARB, 2020b).
