The word "siting" is a gerund form of the derivative verb "site" which was formerly (and properly) only a noun, meaning a location. To site would mean to place at a location, and siting would be the act of locating something, e.g. The company later regretted siting their factory next to the swamp.

This is very easily confused with the homophones "citing" (giving a reference, from to cite) and "sighting" (seeing, from to sight).

"Siting" typically refers to the act of choosing or determining the location for something, such as a building or facility. For example, "The company is in the process of siting a new factory in the industrial park."
