The European Visual Map Journal (EVMJ) platform is an interactive tool which intends to provide better knowledge of post-mining coal heritage on selected territories, through representation and visualisation of information, which will motivate stakeholders to learn more and/or visit coal mining heritage sites.
The launch of the (EVMJ) will allow the users to have access to the coal mining history (technological). It will provide a better knowledge of coal post mining heritage on selected territories, including visual maps, informative texts and existing geospatial data in accordance to its historical evolution. Also, the (EVMJ) will support the knowledge transfer of coal cultural legacy through a friendly-user environment by representing and visualizing the information to motivate a broad range of stakeholders in order to learn more and/or visit them.
The (EVMJ) will be maintained for the duration of the project (2 years) and, to ensure its maintenance, as well as the maintenance of the network, the consortium will seek additional funding that will involve and maintain the results of CoalHeritage and their impact.
