Quantifying the impact of environmental factors in a mining area involves a large number of monitoring points and cover a large area of land. The quality of environmental factors we deduce in several ways, like surveying or analyzing the samples in laboratory that requires many time and in many situations, unjustified high costs. This paper’s purpose is to subject to attention a method that uses the new technologies in the remote sensing field in order to obtain secure information and low costs. This technologies are using in the same time GIS systems that are particularly useful in creating, analyzing and processing geo-spatial information. Implementing this techniques I suggest that we can control and prevent the impact caused by mining activities, we can improve the exploitation techniques and the most important, we can assure the safety of the employers.
