3d Geological Mapping: an Inescapable Evolution for National Geological Surveys

According to EuroGeoSurveys, the European Geological Surveys association, “Geological spatial data and models describe the solid Earth’s surface and subsurface on-shore and off-shore, its nature, structure, properties, dynamics and evolution over time; including its related (geo)resources and (geo) hazards”. This illustrates a modern vision of the core mission that National Geological Surveys h...

Geological Field Mapping

A map showing the distribution of rock units and structures across a region representation, usually on a plane surface is termed a geological map. A map showing the occurrence of structural features across a region, the distribution of rock units, and their type and age relationship is termed a geological map. Geological field mapping is the process of selecting an area of interest and identify...

Global geological mapping of Ganymede

We have compiled a global geological map of Ganymede that represents the most recent understanding of the satellite based on Galileo mission results. This contribution builds on important previous accomplishments in the study of Ganymede utilizing Voyager data and incorporates the many new discoveries that were brought about by examination of Galileo data. We discuss the material properties of ...

Exploratory Procedure for Computer Vision

This paper deals with Exploratory Procedures for Computer Vision. The assumptions are that we have a mobile camera system with controllable focus, close/open aperture, and ability of recording its position, orientation and movement. Furthermore we assume an unknown and unstructured environment. For our analysis we consider two types of illumination sources: the point source and the extended sky...
