The location of a facility producing an airborne pollutant is considered and the 4-wind model introduced by Karkazis and Papdimitriou is described briefly. Ways in which the model may be enhanced are discussed; in particular, it is shown how the restriction to four wind directions may be removed. The applicability of the approach is tested on data relating to the Salonica district of Greece.
