The role of geographic information system and 3D modelling studies in mine closure and rehabilitation plans for the sustainable mining

Terrains are damaged and even dissolves during industrial use process. But those terrains are repaired by "Mine Closing and Renewing Works". Also the works increase potential of agriculture and landscaping. In this way, environmental issues which come from mining works, can be minimized. Mine Closing and Renewing Works are relatively newer in Turkey based on other foreign countries. So, It is expected that, legal obligations will be made about this subject. In this dissertation, terrains damaged by open pit mining and visual effect of landscaping are explicated. Also reparing of environment and renewing works are illustrated in this dissertation. For this, 2D datas which are belong to the mining area are integrated with GIS and those datas are visualised and analysed. Also in this dissertation, elevation and other attributes are checked and modelled as 3D.
