Track: Environment Management
Author(s): Dorothée Labarraque, Gilles HABASQUE, Caroline MALLO

SCETAUROUTE, an international company based in France and specialising in transport infrastructure engineering, has developed a methodology for link selection using Esri GIS software. A specific database is made-up including a constraints' typology based on a value distribution developped by SCETAUROUTE. With Arc____ Spatial Analyst, a thematic constrains' map is realised (agriculture, etc.). Then, a synthesis map including all environmental topics reveals the corridor of lower constraints. Then, with 3D analyst, it is possible to define the "low cost" link. This methode has been used with great success for studies (including public consultations) of several projects (high speed railway, highways, waterways, etc.), in various contries.
