This article provides a detailed analysis of the fundamental elements required prior to conducting on-field research of an areas chosen as case studies for the assessment of soil and water quality in the unpolluted zones. The ultimate goal of the research to be carried out over the next two years is to obtain solid and reliable data on the quality of the two environmental components in these areas. All the data obtained will be integrated into a solid and georeference database, consisting of a sample identification module (soil and water) and a module of a varied parameters that will contain up to 42 parameters analyzed in the testing laboratories. Finally, the article presents the conclusions regarding the transposition of the proposed objectives into field and laboratory activities, graphical and descriptive details integrated into a conceptual model, universally valid in order to evaluate protected natural areas without direct anthropogenic impact. Particular importance in assessing these areas is attributed to detailing aspects that can influence the research results in major way. Issues related to the sampling and subsampling of soil and water samples, their conservation and transport to the laboratory are considered relevant and major. Geomorphological criteria of details, geographic and geological information are considered important in assessing the areas chosen as case studies. The five areas selected in the present study have been described and a number of objectives and activities have been proposed for on-site research to be carried out in the near future.
