OILMAP 7.1

OILMAP is a 3D modeling tool that provides rapid predictions of the movement of spilled oil. It includes simple graphical procedures for entering wind and hydrodynamic data, as well as specifying a spill scenario. It can be used with ASA's own GIS or with other GIS software such as ArcView®. OILMAP updates predictions with over flight data, incorporates Boom-Oil interaction, and allows for the application of dispersant. It also uses NOAA's Adios oil database of nearly 1,000 oils for weathering calculations.
