Editable Excel workbook ·User guide included· Digital access after purchase

It’s not just a blank template. You get a ready-to-use tool that connects the different stages of the assessment and automates much of the calculation process.

Spend less time building spreadsheets. Focus on your environmental assessment.

How does it work?

La herramienta organiza el proceso de evaluación de impactos ambientales en diferentes etapas.

1.Identify activities and environmental factors

Set up the interactions between project activities and the environmental factors that may be affected. Organize the information in the identification matrix.

2.Evaluate the identified impacts

Enter the relevant evaluation codes according to the criteria and options provided in the workbook. These inputs form the basis for the subsequent calculations.

3. Calculate impact values

The workbook converts the configured evaluation codes into numerical values and calculates magnitude, importance, and valuation. Specific filters help you review the information associated with a selected environmental factor and project phase.

4. Review and register the results

Check the calculated valuations and make manual adjustments when your technical assessment requires them. The Valuation Register keeps the results organized for the next stage.

5. Aggregate and classfy the result

The aggregation worksheet consolidates the registered valuations and classifies positive and negative results according to the workbook’s configured criteria.

Identify → Evaluate → Calculate → Register → Aggregate
