Thematic Conference on Remote Sensing for Exploration Geology, 5th, Reno, NV, Sept. 29-Oct. 2, 1986, Proceedings. Volumes 1 and 2
This symposium includes papers on digital terrain model and image integration for geologic interpretation, mapping the Oman ophiolite using TM data, integration of SIR-B imagery with geological and geophysical data in Australia, developing petroleum exploration targets in south-central Texas through digital data integration, and the contribution of Landsat to a geologic expedition in the desert of north-central Sudan, Africa. Consideration is also given to the application of remote sensing to tectonic and metallogenic studies in NE Africa, the use of calibration targets in the measurement of 2.22-micron mineral absorption features in TM data, a geobotanical investigation of an exploration-sized territory, and the remote sensing of geological structure in temperate agriculture terrains. Additional papers are on the identification of clay minerals by feature coding of near-IR spectra, the detection of geologic features in Landsat TM imagery not revealed in Landsat MSS imagery, the remote compositional mapping of rocks using reflected and emitted radiance, and earth observations opportunities from Space Station.
