Industrial, civil and traffic pollution has been growing from many years in most Italian areas. Consequently a first guess pollution estimate is then required in the awareness that a valid perception of the global emission discussion is more important than a more complex and reliable approach for a particular subset of the system. The present study suggests a method for a simple database construction, oriented to emission evaluation in cases of scarce and inhomogeneous information. Basic information comes from public domain sources whereas experts mainly support data relations: the design of the database is ordered with the purposes and objectives of a project analysis. The method has been used to estimate the Esino area (near An
