Automated Identification and Mapping of Iron Sulfate Minerals

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

An algorithm for the automated analysis of multispectral remote sensing data acquired by the Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) sensor has been developed that can efficiently identify surface occurrences of iron sulfate minerals. The algorithm combines thresholded band ratio results into displayed iron sulfate minerals, other minerals and vegetation groups using Boolean algebra.
