Real Time High Resolution Site Characterization Technologies
Abs: Real-time measurement technologies include any data generation method that enables reliable measurement or collection and analysis of environmental media in a time frame that facilitates execution of a DWS. These measurements typically result in a much greater density of information and are available to direct field activities in time frames shorter than those commonly achieved with conventional sampling and analytical methods.

These measurements typically result in a much greater density of information and are available to direct field activities in time frames shorter than those commonly achieved with conventional sampling and analytical methods.
Real-time measurement technologies are used to focus when and where collaborative sampling and analyses can provide the greatest benefit. In a collaborative data set, high-density, real-time measurement screening data are supported with confirmation sampling and fixed-base laboratory analyses performed at a subset of key sampling locations. This reduces laboratory analytical costs and enables the site team to make field-decisions in real-time based on defensible analytical results supported by the weight-of-evidence of large quantities of relevant screening data. The decision logic for guiding HRSC sampling, collecting follow-up confirmatory samples and performing other sampling governed by the DWS, are documented in the investigation work plan.
