Short summary
Based on the German site selection process for a deep geological repository for high-level radioactive waste, we propose a site-prioritization method based on a multi-criteria decision-making approach and risk estimates for each sub-region. The method takes into account the geological factors as well as the uncertainty associated with the heterogeneous nature of subsurface data quality and quantity, in order to enable stakeholders to make informed decisions during the site selection process.
