MAREX - RIM - TU Dortmund

Calendar

Location & approach

By car

The TU Dortmund campus is located near the Dortmund West interchange, where the A45 Sauerland line crosses the B1/A40 Ruhr expressway. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, while the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. Coming from the A45, you can turn onto Stockumer Straße via Universitätsstraße. This in turn is connected to Baroper Straße, along which Campus South extends. If you take the exit of the A-40, the route via Emil-Figge Straße, Marie-Curie Allee to Baroper Straße is appropriate. If you turn from Baroper Straße into August-Schmidt Straße, you have the opportunity to reach the parking lot directly behind the GB III.

By bus and train

The South Campus is connected via Stockumerstraße by bus lines 440 and 449, which run every 10 minutes. Campus South can be reached on foot from the Am Gardenkamp stop, and the Eichlinghofen H-Bahn station is also located near the Eichlinghofen stop. The bus lines connect to the U42 light rail line at the Barop Parkhaus stop, which provides connections to the Dortmund-Hombruch district and Dortmund downtown.

By overhead railway (H-Bahn)

From Dortmund-Eichlinghofen, the South Campus is connected to the H-Bahn network via the Eichlinghofen H-Bahn station. Line 1 runs here every 10 minutes, and the South Campus is served by the Campus Süd stop.
A connection to Campus North is also provided. Line 2 shuttles between Campus North and Campus South every 5 minutes.

By plane

The AirportExpress is a fast and convenient means of transport from Dortmund Airport (DTM) to Dortmund Central Station, taking you there in little more than 20 minutes. From Dortmund Central Station, you can continue to the university campus by interurban railway (S-Bahn). A larger range of international flight connections is offered at Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), which is about 60 kilometres away and can be directly reached by S-Bahn from the university station.

Plan of site & interactive map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark".

CLIENT Vietnam project MAREX

Funding: Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF)
Duration: 01.09.2015 – 31.08.2018

Many cities in Vietnam have experienced a construction boom in recent years, which has led to a rapid increase in resource consumption. Combined with this boom, the result was a rapid increase in the extraction of raw materials in the surrounding areas of the metropolises. In July 2015, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) approved the MAREX project, which was scheduled to run for three years. The joint project aimed to map the material flows in the building materials industry in the capital city of Ha Noi and its surrounding area. The goal was to determine the effects on the environment as well as the resulting land use conflicts and to identify technical solutions for reducing the environmental impact. The empirical studies focused on Hoa Binh Province, which is a focal point for the extraction of raw materials for the construction industry.

The joint project comprises four subprojects, of which each project pursues different methodological-conceptual approaches, complementing each other in terms of the overall objective. RIM has worked on subproject 1, which aimed to acquire relevant geodata and gain knowledge about mining, resulting environmental problems, and land use conflicts. Environmental impacts were recorded, modeled, assessed and monitored using an indicator system and methods of geoinformatics and remote sensing. At the same time, RIM developed a tool to monitor mining activities including their environmental impacts.
