How does PEAC compare to Cameo, D2PC?
A. D2PC is a modeling software application developed by the US Army; it is not currently available in the public domain. The application runs in a DOS environment. CAMEO is the software application developed by the US EPA and NOAA. It is available free of charge from EPA and can be downloaded from their web site. CAMEO has some features similar to the PEAC WMD application. Specifically it has: (1) a chemical properties database, (2) a generic chemical protective clothing database which means that generic materials are provided, not specific manufacturers’ products with breakthrough times, and (3) it has a modeling feature (the ALOHA) model that has an interface similar to the PEAC WMD modeling interface. The CAMEO application is also used by EPA as a method for LEPCs (Local Emergency Planning Committees) to enter local chemical inventories to meet the requirements of the SARA Title III regulations. The CAMEO product compliments the PEAC WMD tool since CAMEO is designed to be a planning
