“output” means an environmental activity, effort, and/or associatedwork products related to an environmental goal or objective, that will be produced or providedover a period of time or by a specified date. The term “outcome” means the result, effect, orconsequence that will occur from carrying out an environmental program or activity that isrelated to an environmental or programmatic goal or objective

Developing correction algorithms is an activeresearch area with new approaches andmethods likely to evolve over time.
EPA considers this research
-
The collocation results can be used to correct the sensor data to more closely match thedata from the reference instrument. This correction process helps account for known biasand unknown interferences from weather and other pollutants and is typically done bydeveloping an algorithm. An algorithm can be a simple equation or more sophisticatedprocess (e.g., set of rules, machine learning) that is applied to the sensor data. This sectionfurther discusses the process of correcting sensor data
