Managing environmental data is a complex task …

  • Multiple data sources :
    • different types (continuous, categorical)
    • difficult to combine
    • prone to measurement errors
  • Complex distributions
  • Presence of spatial or even temporal correlations
  • Correlations between variables

...Yet it is a crucial one

  • To provide a suitable model for complex situations
  • To provide a sound basis for a probabilistic assessment of decontamination volumes and costs
  • To make the most of the available data

 

Ephesia Consult can assist you in the following tasks:

 

Data mining
  • Exploratory and statistical analysis of environmental data
Characterisation of soil contamination
  • Geostatistical and probabilistic estimation and delineation of contaminated soil volumes
  • 3D cartography of pollutant concentrations and of contaminated or safe soil volumes
  • Quantification of the uncertainty about the estimation of contaminated soil volumes
Sampling design and optimisation
  • Optimisation of the location and number of additional samples
  • Maximisation of the gain of information
  • Compliance with cost constraints
Modelling
  • Health and environmental risk analysis
  • Spatio-temporal modelling of the air quality
  • Spatio-temporal modelling of landfill gas emissions
