DEVELOPMENT OF DATA MODEL FOR INVESTIGATION AND ANALYSIS IN SOIL AND GROUNDWATER CONTAMINATION AND ITS APPLICATION TO A REAL CONTAMINATED SITE

Abstract

To carry out proper countermeasures for soil and groundwater contamination caused by hazardous waste materials, it is necessary to systemize procedures from investigation to remediation. In this study, data required in the countermeasures and processes to convert data were extracted, and each data was related with the processes, using the concept of data model. Especially, the data model for investigation and analysis was developed, which enables to analyze groundwater contamination. By applying the data model to a real contaminated site, groundwater contamination analysis was successfully conducted. Namely, it was shown that functions of numerical simulation in the data model for investigation and analysis could be effectively applied in the actual countermeasures.
