IMPACTMIN Impact Monitoring of Mineral Resources Exploitation

Coordinator: GEONARDO KORNYEZETVEDELMI TERINFORMATIKAI ES REGIONALIS PROJEKTFEJLESZTO KORLATOLT FELELOSSEGU TARSASAG (HU)

ImpactMin will develop new methods and a corresponding toolset for the environmental impact monitoring of mining operations using Earth Observations. Novel technology will be proposed for the combined use of satellite remote sensing, aerial lightweight measurements and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The proposed methods will be validated at four demonstration sites in Sweden, Bosnia&Herzegovina, Romania and Russia. The theoretical advancement in science and technology will be made public knowledge with the help of a free multimedia e-learning programme whereas the tools and foreground knowl…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €2.6M toward a total project budget of €3.3M — a funding rate of 79%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 3 years from 2010-01-01 to 2012-12-31.
