Marine sediment re-use in the ports of North Western Europe. Toward a spatial decision support system for "Civil Engineering Application for Marine Sediments" (CEAMaS project)

This contribution aims at presenting a spatial decision support system, in a geographical information system and applied to the assessment and the feasibility of a potential reuse path for marine sediments. Its objective is to compare different ways of adding value to sediment. A geographical information system allows a solution to be spatially analyzed, and was therefore chosen for our study. Then, in a geographical information system, a decision support system was developed and tested. This decision support system is based on a spatial dataset, which considers the places of dredging, the sites of treatment and adding-value, and the sites of reuse. Developments and results, funded by the CEAMaS Interreg IVB North Western Europe project, are presented in this contribution on which to build future analyses. Keywords— Marine sediments, GIS, Management, Dredging, Decision support system.
