چکیده

Abstract: Lineaments are mapable linear surface features, which presumably reflect subsurface phenomena. The study demonstrates the use of ALOS imagery for lineament mapping for geological application. The image was enhanced and used for lineaments extraction through on-screen digitising. The extracted lineaments were evaluated against the published geological map for the study area using GIS overlay operation. Statistical analyses were carried to determine lengths, densities and intersections of the lineaments. The results show that the interpreted lineaments from ALOS imagery and ancillary data closely correlate with the faults shown on the published geological map (in 1974) of the study area.

Spatiotemporal Estimation of PM2.5 Concentration Using Remotely Sensed Data, Machine Learning, and Optimization Algorithms

PM 2.5 (particles <2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter) can be measured by ground station data in urban areas, but the number of these stations and their geographical coverage is limited. Therefore, these data are not adequate for calculating concentrations of Pm2.5 over a large urban area. This study aims to use Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) satellite images and meteorological data from 2014 to 2017 ...

A Comparative Study of SVM and RF Methods for Classification of Alteration Zones Using Remotely Sensed Data

Identification and mapping of the significant alterations are the main objectives of the exploration geochemical surveys. The field study is time-consuming and costly to produce the classified maps. Therefore, the processing of remotely sensed data, which provide timely and multi-band (multi-layer) data, can be substituted for the field study. In this study, the ASTER imagery is used for altera...
