Name	Type	Description
Exposure type	ExposureType	The type of exposure considered in the assessment; acute (short term) or chronic (long-term).

Name	Type	Description
Target level	TargetLevelType	Select whether the assessment is at the level of external dose, internal (target) concentration or internal (systemic) dose. For an aggregate assessment, combining dietary and nondietary exposures, the target level is always internal concentration or internal (systemic) dose. When only dietary exposures are available, the target level is optional and may be an external (administered) dose, an internal (tissue) concentration or an internal (absorbed) dose.
Exposure calculation method	ExposureCalculationMethod	Method for obtaining exposure estimates. These can be modelled exposures (e.g., external (dietary) exposures or internal exposure estimates obtained by aggregating dietary and non-dietary exposures) or exposure estimates derived from human (bio)monitoring data.
Burden of disease indicators	BodIndicator	Burden of disease indicators.
Specify the exposure grouping method	ExposureGroupingMethod	Specify the method by which the exposures are grouped in bins.
Specify the bin boundaries.	Numeric	Specify the boundaries of the bins by which the exposures are grouped.

Table 386 Uncertainty settings for module Environmental burden of disease.
Name	Type	Description
Lower uncertainty limit (%)	Numeric	Percentage lower bound, e.g. 2.5%.
Upper uncertainty limit (%)	Numeric	Percentage upper bound, e.g. 97.5%.
