NRSRM: a decision support system and visualization software for the management of petroleum-contaminated sites

A robust decision-support system (DSS) was developed to provide environmental managers with all integrated measure for tackling subsuface contamination problems. Such a DSS included components of mathematical modeling, risk assessment, remediation-technique screening, and monitoring-program design. A visual-language-based software package, named NRSRM, was developed for facilitating a variety of functions within the DSS. It provided a collection of measures for analyzing and visualizing subsurface contamination problems. A contaminated site located in western Canada was examined to demonstrate its applicability By exploring different remedial technologies, NRSRM recommended six alternatives for cleaning lip the site.
