Qualitative uncertainty assessment: a worked example
The document 'Guidance on Qualitative Uncertainty Assessment' proposes a three-step procedure for qualitative uncertainty assessment as part of environmental health impact assessments:
- Identification of uncertainty sources;
- Qualitative characterisation of uncertainty in terms of:
- direction and magnitude of uncertainty on the results
- knowledge about the uncertainty source
- Reporting of qualitative uncertainty
The purpose of the attached document is to illustrate how this guidance may be implemented in practice, by applying it to a worked example. The emphasis here is on the practical challenges.
