However, all of this data shares a common geographical reference, especially in the renaturation of former open-cast mining areas. To ensure safety, it is crucial to maintain a comprehensive overview of the interrelated data and draw accurate conclusions. This requires special tools and can be a very time-consuming process. A geographical information system (GIS) is well-suited for this purpose, but even a GIS has limitations when dealing with multiple data types and sources. Additional tools are often necessary to process and view all the data, which can complicate the planning process. Our paper describes a system architecture that addresses the aforementioned issues and provides a simple, yet flexible tool for these activities. The architecture is based on microservices using Docker and is divided into a backend and a frontend. The backend simplifies and generalizes the integration of different data types, while a graph database is used to link relevant data and reveal potential new relationships between them. Finally, a modern web frontend displays the data and relationships.Attribution 4.0 International License10.2312/envirvis.202411388 pages
