The assessment of soils quality is based on a precise location of the samples performed with GPS receiver, is highlighted on punctual maps and all analytical data obtained in laboratories of analysis have as result a georeferenced database. It is important to note that areas identified as polluted were largely correlated with actual or potential sources of pollution that have existed over time.
