Potash mining is an important economic activity in the north-east of Spain. However, one of
the main environmental issues produced for such type of mining is subsidence, which generates
horizontal and vertical ground displacements. A Geographic Information System (GIS)-based
model is proposed as a management system in a case study with two mines. This system is
able to deal with subsidence data and its behavior over time. More than 1300 control points are
included in the GIS, with data since 2007. These data processed by the GIS allowed determining the
module, sense and direction of the displacements, the sinking velocity and the possible affectation
of subsidence to infrastructures and buildings. Hence, the system created can be a useful tool to
manage subsidence data, determine its evolution, predict future environmental and social impacts
and control corrective measures. |
