Measure of Effectiveness

moe <name> <measure-type>
   output ...
end_moe

A measure of effectiveness specifies how the collected interaction history for a coverage is processed into a usable number, typically summarizing the interactions.

Commands

moe *<name>* <measure-type>.

Specify a measure of effectiveness for the coverage to compute. See Predefined Measures of Effectiveness for a list of all available coverage types.

Measure Output Commands

output <output-type>
   ...
end_output

output <output_type> … end_output

Specify a form of output to produce for a measure of effectiveness. The allowed values for <output_type> are:

• data - Produces a text file containing the MOE’s value at each grid point.

• grid_stats - Produces a text file that computes summary statistics of the MOE over the grid.

• lat_lon_stats - Produces a text file that computes summary statistics as a function of either latitude or longitude.

Predefined Measures of Effectivess

• WSF_ACCESS_DURATION_MOE - Measures the durations of access intervals of individual free assets.

• WSF_COVERAGE_TIME_MOE - Measures the coverage time for the grid assets.

• WSF_N_ASSET_COVERAGE_MOE - Measures how many free assets that a grid asset can access at a time.

• WSF_NUMBER_OF_ACCESSES_MOE - Measures the number of coverage gaps for the grid assets.

• WSF_NUMBER_OF_GAPS_MOE - Measures the number of coverage gaps for the grid assets.

• WSF_SIMPLE_COVERAGE_MOE - Measures if grid assets have any interactions with a free asset.

• WSF_REVISIT_TIME_MOE - Measures the revisit time for the grid assets.

• WSF_TIME_AVERAGE_GAP_MOE - Measures the most likely coverage gap length one would find if the coverage interval were randomly sampled.
