Quaternary deposits map of Yana-Indigirka and Kolyma lowlands tundra zone, R-55-57, based on Landsat imagery
The Quaternary geology map was created for the Yana-Indigirka (eastern part) and Kolyma lowlands, tundra and partly forest-tundra zones. The map corresponds to the nomenclature sheet of Government Geological Map R-(55)-57, northern part. The primary goal for creating the map is to enhance current kn...
