Landsat TM remote sensing study of geological lineaments on Hinnøya, Vesterålen archipelago, Norway

The geological lineament pattern on the island of Hinnøya, Vesterålen archipelago in Norway, was studied by means of remote sensing techniques. One quarterscene of Landsat TM covering 90 km x 90 km with a spatial resolution of 30 m, registered 900720, was used to extract these structural features. B...

Description
Summary:The geological lineament pattern on the island of Hinnøya, Vesterålen archipelago in Norway, was studied by means of remote sensing techniques. One quarterscene of Landsat TM covering 90 km x 90 km with a spatial resolution of 30 m, registered 900720, was used to extract these structural features. Because of the pronounced topography on Hinnøya it was necessary to correct the apparent strike of the structure with the help of a detailed Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to achieve the real orientation (dip) of the lineament producing structures. 33347
