the kalut-e-ashrafa area is located in the north-east of ardakan area in central iran, yazd province. this area promises copper mineralization. the most of the minerals in this study area are silica-rich veins and veinlets. therefore, in order to identify geological formations with silica zones and to determine potential mineralization areas, aster images and remote sensing methods were used. a...

multi-spectral remotely sensed data is useful information source for the detection of surface changes and change detection is a major application of the remotely sensed data. this study is conducted to investigate capability of sensor liss-iii of irs-p6resource satellite data for providing land cover map, in najm abad of savojbolagh region with 20000 ha area. the images of 26th june, 2006 were ...

soil salinity has been a large problem in arid and semi arid regions. preparation of such maps is useful for natural resource managers. old methods of preparing such maps require a lot of time and cost. multi-spectral remotely sensed dates due to the broad vision and repeating of these imageries is suitable for provide saline soil maps. this investigation is conducted to provide saline soil map...

structural analysis of remotely sensed data provides a method of assessing the structural significance of large-magnitude regional metallogenesis in the kerman porphyry cu belt in the southern part of the central iranian volcanic belt. the role of large-magnitude ring structures in the distribution of hydrothermal alteration zones and porphyry copper deposits in the southern part of the kerman ...

Abstract Quaternary placer deposits are becoming increasingly important. Remote sensing is a very powerful tool in discriminating altered areas related to intrusion deposits, which has significantly reduced the cost and time of exploration. In this study, to identify iron-bearing alluvial zones within the 1:100000 sheet of Hamedan, satellite image processing techniques such as band ratio (BR),...

soil surfaces in arid and semi-arid lands often lack photoautotrophic life but are covered by communities of soil surface covering organisms able to tolerate dehydration, and thus adapted to aridity. one important objective of multi-spectral remote sensing instruments is the detection of the optical characteristics of the earth’s surface using high spectral resolution bands. in this study aster...

The present study addresses the potential of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data for land cover classification in parts of Dandeli forested regions, Karnataka, India. a FCC has been generated from coherence and backscattering co-efficient images of ENVISATASAR data (HH polarizations) of 25 Sep 2006 and 30 Oct 2006. Similarly, ENVISAT-ASAR data (HH polarization) of 25 Sep 2006 along with IRS –P6...

Airborne multispectral digital video imagery was evaluated as tool for surveying kaolin-treated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) plots, with emphasis on decision support. Images of experimental plots were obtained on 12 June 2002 and 16 June 2004 with an electronic digital video imaging system acquiring blue (447–455 nm), green (555–565 nm), red (625–635 nm), near-infrared (814–826 nm), and mid-i...
