If you are interested in developing a program or tool to work with ALOHA, you may want to review the documents below:

• Communicating with ALOHA [PDF, 112 KB] explains how ALOHA exchanges information with other programs.
• ALOHA Pass Files [PDF, 68 KB] specifically addresses sharing threat zone information with other programs; this document supplements the information in the "Communicating with ALOHA" document.
• Designing an ALOHA Met Station [PDF, 40 KB] describes how to design a portable meteorological station (also called a station for atmospheric measurements, or SAM) that is compatible with ALOHA.
