Application of space survey materials in solving theoretical and practical problems in geology
Abstract
Photographic surveys (visible and near infrared) were successfully tested covering the wavelength range from 0.4 to 0.9 microns for geologic information. Space surveys were obtained by both photographic and television-scanner methods. Small scale, increased coverage, natural generalization, and increased interpretation effectiveness were characterized. Automation of geologic interpretation is proposed.
