Our research focuses<\/h1>

We investigate post-mining from all angles - in the field, the lab and even from outerspace.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>

Through our investigations, we establish a comprehensive understanding of the hydrological system of former mining \nenvironments to facilitate the sustainable management of mine water, groundwater and surface waters.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t

Geomonitoring in post-mining<\/h5>\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
<\/div><\/div>

We develop technology and methods perfectly tailored for monitoring of degraded land, regions in transition as well as post-mining activities. Therefore, we combine a diverse range of geospatial and environmental information by using drones, satellites, sensors and robotics.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t

Material sciences for the preservation of cultural heritage<\/h5>\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the preservation of industrial culture, we investigate the aging processes of materials. In the best case, the decay can not merely retarded, but completely stopped. So new chances arise from old shafts.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t

We analyse the political, economic and legal frameworks needed to successfully reactivate former industrial locations and their infrastructures. By that we consider regional and municipal objectives, as well as the involvement of the general public.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t
