Odour Sources

Static odour sources let you attribute a source of odour to measurement data while you are in the field. Ideally, known odour sources should be added via the web app using source zones.

Known odour sources can be assigned to your measurement data.

When you add an odour source using the web app, it becomes available in:

• dropdown menus on the mobile app
• the zone source type dropdown when adding a zone

Adding a New Odour Source

1. Click the icon under Odour Sources on the map toolbar, to access the Odour Source Wizard.

2. Enter a unique name for the odour source in the input field.

3. Click the map to set the source’s location or manually enter the coordinates if known.

4. Click the Save button to add the new source.

Showing and Hiding Sources

Click the icon under Odour Sources on the map toolbar, to open the source list.

• Search for a source by name, in the input field.
• Check or uncheck the items on the list you wish to be visible on the map.
• Use Select All at the bottom of the list to show or hide all of them at once.

Note: The icon is disabled (greyed out) when the site has no odour sources.

Deleting an Odour Source
