The apparatus-program system DAN-2 developed for registration of emission and absorption of optical and microwave radiation initiated by gas-aerosol pollution in the atmosphere is presented. In the DAN-2, the problem of automation of recording processes, storage and processing of the information measured in experiment has been solved. Algorithms of the techniques incorporated in subsystems of the program complex for calculation and estimation of atmospheric anomalies include: - calculation of gas concentration in a plume of industrial emission taking into account gas-aerosol attenuation, an azimuth of the device sighting to a direction on the source and the allocated illumination of the day-time sky; - numerical modeling of formation and distribution of gas-aerosol emission fields in the atmosphere with use of various models (Gaussian, Berlyand, etc.); - the forecast of optical noise in the atmosphere taking into account different types of underground surfaces under various meteorological conditions; - the restoration algorithm of the plume structure using its image. Application of a modular principle has created an opportunity to realize all subsystems independently from each other and in the general complex of programs. As a tool for creation of the system software, the object-oriented instrument of programming Delphi 5.0 has been chosen. It has a number of advantages and distinctive features such as the convenient graphic interface with displaying of calculation results as uniform scrolling tables and graphics, access to the data files, high speed of mathematical calculations, an opportunity of the further expansion and change of the calculation algorithms.
