    The legacy of the liquidated uranium mine industry and its surface activity are mining damage and abandoned objects, hazardous to the environment. To date, the basic obstacle, which prevented remediation of such mine grounds, was lack of complex profile of particular objects and risks related. The paper presents methods for application of the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for identification, to catalog and for assessment of hazard to the environment caused by uranium mine facilities and mining damage. The methods were implemented in five place, in three districts of SW Poland. Apart from the tools specific for GIS, there were utilized German experience. Moreover, it was pointed out that the data may be effectively used for geotechnical intervention, being an important part of the terrain remediation process.
