Abstract

A study into the application of geological remote sensing mapping in highly cultivated and limited outcropping areas of New South Wales, Australia, shows the issues of day-time ASTER reflectance imagery can benefit sometimes from slope and vegetation defined mask like filtering. Spectroscopy of field samples however proves useful for mineralogy. Night-time ASTER thermal imagery also shows the promise for identifying limited outcrops present and mapping sub-surface paleochannels.
