In socio-environmental impact assessment studies, the first step is to know the context where the scheme is going to be implemented. For that aim, it would be very useful to set an indicator system to define the different dimensions of the context: demography, phisycal geography, social aspects, economic structure, political characteristics... Lot of literature touch those dimensions, but separately one of each other. Adding those cited system, the final result is a quite long and complex indicator system. Suggestions about integrated context indicator system will be very wellcome. Thanks.
Dear resercher,
I suggest you to see in my profile the paper: Study of criteria for evaluation of transportation with intermodal transport. It may be helpful in your research.
Are you trying to determine the infrastructure alternative that produces the maximal benefit (social, ecological, and economic) to the community? I address that specifically in my paper. "Building a Framework for Absolute Sustainability" (attached).
The community would have to develop a significant amount of data, but then it would be useful for all projects.
Dear researcher
I think some of my work could contribute to the answer to your question.
