Abstract
The upgraded BMEGUI, version 3.0, allows users to transparently run the BME programs
without having to learn any additional programming language and complexities of tedious
mathematical formulations. This upgraded BMEGUI provides an easy-to-use interface with
improved internal error handling, with automatic covariance parameter selection, and with
expanded types of data types supported, and with the incorporation of a river network distances
that substantially improved the previous version of BMEGUI. The input to the upgraded
BMEGUI includes environmental monitoring data and river networks that users can obtain from
DEP databases. The output will be BME estimated maps showing the spatial distribution of
environmental parameters for any time of interest. The upgraded BMEGUI has been delivered to
NJDEP with a fully updated user’s manual.
