Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Approval for Construction Projects: Ledger Summary and Report Generation - Document Parsing and Chunking

What This Category's Data Looks Like

Data for this category primarily originates from the national unified construction project EIA declaration and approval system, ecological environment zoning control results, pollution discharge permit platform, and monitoring data. Commonly processed documents include environmental impact assessment reports/report forms, approval applications, public participation statements, technical evaluation opinions, EIA approvals, and similar materials. Most document structures include fields such as basic project information, EIA level determination, pollution prevention measures, public participation feedback, and involve units such as floor area and pollutant discharge volume. Data updates follow no fixed cycle, and are generated synchronously with project approval progress.

Constraints Imposed on Document Parsing and Chunking

Data sources span multiple government systems, and document formats include editable text and scanned documents. This requires the parsing link to support multi-format input. Documents have numerous fields with strong business relevance. When splitting content, it is necessary to avoid separating associated content such as basic project information and EIA level determination. As such, chunk length must match the length of a single business module. Data updates follow no fixed cycle, and a single parsing task may involve multiple batch documents. This means reasonable timeout and batch upper limits must be configured. Ledger summary requires accurate association of multiple documents for the same project, so chunks must retain project identification fields to avoid mixing content across projects.

Configuration Settings

The following configuration items are supported in FastGPT v4.17.0.

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
chunkSize800–1200 charactersMatches the length of a single business module in EIA documents (such as pollution prevention measures) to avoid separating associated fields
chunkSplitterSplit by heading hierarchyEIA documents mostly use standard chapter headings; splitting by headings preserves the integrity of business modules
customPdfParseEnabledAdapts to OCR parsing requirements for scanned EIA reports, extracting retrievable text content
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE1000 MBSupports uploading of large individual EIA reports, avoiding interruptions during batch parsing due to oversized files
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS600 secondsAdapts to parsing time for multi-page large documents, preventing premature termination of batch tasks due to timeout
chunkSettingModeManual configurationFor the fixed structure of EIA documents, manually adjusting chunk parameters to match business fields offers better adaptability than automatic mode

Three Common Misconfigurations

  • Batch uploading large numbers of EIA documents causes interruptions, and parsing cannot resume after restarting Docker. Cause: No reasonable UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE and PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS are set. Batch tasks exceed configured thresholds and are forcibly terminated, and no parsing breakpoints are retained.
  • Uploading EIA files via the dialogue box never triggers parsing, and no errors appear in the background. Cause: customPdfParse is not enabled. Scanned EIA documents cannot complete OCR extraction, and the system does not trigger an error prompt.
  • Parsed documents cannot support content-based queries, and model outputs are unrelated to the document content. Cause: chunkSize is set too small, splitting a single business module into multiple chunks, leading to associated fields being separated. Retrieval cannot match complete business logic.

How to Confirm Proper Configuration

  • Upload a single typical EIA report, review the parsed text content, confirm that OCR extraction results for scanned documents meet expectations, and verify the configuration status of customPdfParse.
  • Batch upload 3 to 5 EIA documents of different formats, check that all parsing tasks complete without interruptions, and verify the reasonableness of UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE and PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS configurations.
  • Extract parsed chunk content, confirm that core identification fields such as project name and EIA level are retained, verify that chunks do not separate associated business content, and match the configuration logic of chunkSize and chunkSplitter.
  • Initiate a content query based on parsed documents, confirm that model outputs match the document content, and verify that the chunking logic adapts to the association requirements of EIA business.
