Synopsis

Remote sensing and GIS techniques assist geologists by providing valuable information about geology and minerals of an area to be surveyed, so that geologists spend quality and focused time in the field. The lithology of Khaira Murat Range, Attock Pakistan is studied using Landsat ETM+ and ASTER Satellite images. The shortwave infrared and thermal infrared bands of Landsat and ASTER successfully mapped industrial minerals like calcite, quartz, muscovite and montmorillonite.
