Abstract

Applied methodology combines quantitative human health risk assessment and spatial basal GIS methods to produce an assessment of risks to human health from exposure to contaminated land, in a manner which preserves the spatial distribution of risks and provides a measure of uncertainty in the assessment. Intake of soil contaminants and consequent risk is calculated using an adaptation of the SSL model. These maps provide a powerful visual tool for the risk managers, enabling efficient targeting of risk reduction measures to different locations.
