Our conceptual idea aims to develop a new service for the consultancy and brownfield redevelopment construction sector active in the remediation of contaminated land. Particularly, this service will be available for use within the preliminary stages of the site selection and risk assessment process allowing decision makers to identify sites where land contamination and soil waste related liabilities could be a significant barrier to sustainable re-use of that site. By developing a desk-based assessment solution, it is envisaged that it would allow practitioners to rapidly assess numerous sites remotely, negating the time- and cost-consuming site visits usually required by practitioners.
