Comprehensive Environmental Analysis

Complete site assessment in one click

Run a full-site environmental assessment from a single map click. The tool combines distance analysis for water bodies, water wells, buildings, and infrastructure into one workflow, executing all queries in parallel and delivering results in seconds. It produces a PDF report for inclusion in Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments.

How It Works

1

Select a location

Click anywhere on the map within Alberta to set your analysis point. The tool automatically detects your Legal Land Description (LLD).

2

Configure parameters

Set your search radius, number of features to return, and optional flow direction for downstream analysis.

3

Run analysis

The tool queries water bodies, water wells, buildings, and infrastructure simultaneously, calculating distances and bearings for each feature.

4

Review results

Results appear in an interactive panel with expandable sections for each analysis type. Features are visualized on the map with distance markers.

5

Export report
