The study area is located in the South German Molasse Basin (a; after Agemar et al., 2012) in the city of Munich (b, c). In 2016 a 170 km\(^{2}\) 3D seismic survey was conducted in Munich (outlined area with dashed line) to investigate and better understand the reservoir geometries and rock parameters. The colored lines are faults that result from strong tectonic deformation due to the Alpine orogeny (red: old known faults, green: newly identified faults from 3D seismic data interpreted by Ziesch (2019)). These might influence the reservoir and, therefore, geothermal production plants (Fr: Freiham, Kst: Kirchstockach, R: Riem, Sls: Schäftlarnstraße, Uhg: Unterhaching)
