Main features of SoFi Pro

  • (technical support) full technical and reasonable scientific support with regular updates and upgrades to future IGOR versions
  • (individual support) instant messaging or scheduled meetings with us if you would like to discuss a problem or scientific question
  • (resampling strategy) bootstrap application on PMF input for the assessment of the statistical error and subsequent analysis using the dynamic criteria-based feature
  • (criteria-based feature) Inspection and selection of PMF runs based on user-defined proxies/tracers
  • (statistics on average) average over several PMF runs and visual inspection of the averaged solutions
  • (rolling technique) user-based PMF sub-window moves over the entire PMF input allowing for time-dependent factor profiles. Especially relevant for long-term SA studies, where factor profiles are supposed to vary over time
  • (relative error scaling) manual and automated application of the C-value, when combining data from two and more instruments and subsequent graphical support when exploring these solutions
  • (additional averaging) hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly average in SoFi for externals, PMF input and solution
  • (classes) variables and/or time points can be classified for further analysis, e.g., PMF with data from various stations at the same time or various size-fractions
  • (saving&loading utilities) saving and loading user-specific PMF input and constraints or user-defined criteria.
  • (HR analysis) create user-defined familes for better representation of the profiles, have access to van Krevelen and carbon number distribution plots within just one click.
  • graphical support for the quantification of the PMF error, statistics on the a-values
  • …and much more, consult the SoFi manual for more details.
