Motivation for New Assessment tool
• Accommodate temporal and spatial variance in addition to sampling variance
• Allow spatially broad but ephemeral events.
• Allow spatially small but persistent events.
Overview of CFD Assessment Process
• Determine a Compliance criteria, C (C may be a collection of points)
• Collect samples over segment for m dates in 3 year period.
• For each date interpolate (Krig) to n cells over segment.
Overview of CFD Assessment Process
• For each date estimate proportion of segment that does not comply with C.

Overview of CFD Assessment Process
• Estimate Cumulative Frequency Distribution (CFD) of Area out of compliance for all dates.
• Inverse of the Empirical Distribution Function of the psj. Plot step ptj versus psj.

Wrinkles
• How to define the reference curve.
• The shape of the CFD is influenced by level of sampling.
Simulation
• Assume segment has 1000 cells.
• Simulate values for the 1000 cells each day for 3 years.
• Sample 10 cells once a month.
• Interpolate from the 10 to the 1000.
• Compare the CFD from sampling to the true CFD.
Wrinkles
• How to define the reference curve.
• The shape of the CFD is influenced by level of sampling.
• A confidence envelope for the CFD is proving analytically complex.
