Since Excess cold emissions are initially attributed to urban driving only, assuming that the majority of vehicles start their trips from urban areas, only urban emission factors are proposed for cold start. One can view the factors for each pollutant through the Pollutant drop-down list, for each sector through the Sector drop-down list, and for each month in the Month drop-down list. Included in the pollutant list is also the fuel consumption for stabilized engine temperature (FC).

When one wishes to introduce own emission factors and not use the values proposed by the software, he/she can simply replace the proposed value by typing in the respective cell. The value will be displayed red indicating an updated value. If the user wishes to finalize the update he/she must click on the "Apply" button. The value will be displayed as black in an orange cell indicating a user value. In order to restore this emission factor to the COPERT calculated value the user needs to right-click on the value, he wishes to restore and select "Set default values" from the proposed menu. Alternatively, he/she can select all values in the form by pressing "Ctrl + a" and then by right-clicking restoring all to the default values.

Factors > Cold

This form follows the same principles as the Hot Emission Factors form. However, cold excess emission factors are temperature dependant and therefore an additional list of Months (January to December) is given. User proposed values follow a similar function as described in the Factors>Hot.

Since Excess cold emissions are initially attributed to urban driving only, assuming that the majority of vehicles start their trips from urban areas, only urban emission factors are proposed for cold start. One can view the factors for each pollutant through the Pollutant drop-down list, for each sector through the Sector drop-down list, and for each month in the Month drop-down list. Included in the pollutant list is also the fuel consumption for stabilized engine temperature (FC).

The user is able to import/export these data from/to an excel/CSV file. There are also the options of undo/redo available.
