Abstract

The operational performance of a fluid storage (12, 14, 16) and dispensing system (32, 34) is monitored by measurement apparatus which measures a volume associated with the system. A plurality of measurement data is collected from the measurement apparatus in a form readable by a computer (70, 90) and is stored in a compressed matrix format in a computer memory (74). The compressed matrix format is statistically analyzed to determine operational monitoring information regarding the system. The temperature of the fluid may be measured for calculating the volume (18) associated with the system. The operational performance and volume of the fluid storage system (12, 14, 16) may be precisely monitored without requiring presumptions as to the accuracy of the measurement apparatus.
