Mine
and caverns require surveying for several reasons: scheduled
underground extraction, drift and infrastructural development in
conventional mines are managed on the base of accurate mining
plans resulting from mine survey. Controlling the underground
dissolution progress in caverns or old flooded mines and shafts
needs particular surveying techniques which are provided by
specialized service companies.
In
both, conventional mines and solution caverns the survey of
time-dependent deformation processes as well as of surface subsidence
above the underground cavities is one of
the most important data sources for mine safety assessment during
operation and after shut-down of production.
