Gary M. Wilson

Gary Wilson is the primary programmer in photochemical modeling and emissions modeling development at Ramboll. He has over 20 years of experience with emissions models, including EPS3, SMOKE, EMS95, MOBILEx, EMFAC7x, DTIM2, EXPLORA and GloBEIS. Gary is responsible for the ongoing maintenance and development of Ramboll’s state-of-the-science photochemical grid model, the Comprehensive Air Quality Model with extensions (CAMx). He was the principal programmer in incorporating all probing tools add-on tools into the CAMx model, each of which provides the ability to analyze the behavior of the photochemical model in a unique way. Working with the Office of Mobile Sources at USEPA, he developed NONROAD, a FORTRAN-based model that estimates the county-level emissions from non-road mobile sources. Gary also worked with a team headed by USEPA to incorporate the NONROAD model into the MOVES subsystem, adding the capability of MOVES to generate estimates for NONROAD sources. Gary is proficient in all tasks necessary for carrying out a modeling simulation using the CAMx model, from the preparation of all necessary inputs, to the configuring and execution of the model simulation, to the analysis of the model results using graphics of model predictions and statistics of model performance. Gary is an expert in FORTRAN, PERL and Linux shell scripting, and has programming experience in C, HTML C++, Visual Basic, SQL and SAS. On a number of occasions, he has provided training to other agencies in the use of modeling systems. In his capacity as system administrator, Gary possesses expert knowledge of the Linux, Windows Desktop and Windows Server operating systems. He holds an MS in mathematics from San Jose State University.
