Abstract
Many gravel pits have been filled in the last 50 years with household refuse, building debris and industrial waste. They were filled up in an uncontrolled manner with poor or no documentation. Nowadays most of these waste sites are covered by thin gravel and soil layer and are recultivated. however, they bear a huge risk to the environment due to the possible pollution of the aquifers. Therefore the detection of the dimensions of a waste site and especially the determination of different regions inside a waste site are very important for environmental protection studies.
