Geological processes at depth ultimately control and are linked to the resulting surface features. Large regions in Australia, West Africa, India, and China are blanketed by cover (intensely weathered surface material and/or later sediment deposition, both up to hundreds of metres thick). Mineral exploration through cover poses a significant technological challenge worldwide. Classifying and understanding landscape types and their variability is of key importance for mineral exploration in covered regions. Landscape variability expresses how near-surface geochemistry is linked to underlying lithologies. Therefore, landscape variability mapping should inform surface geochemical sampling strategies for mineral exploration. Advances in satellite imaging and computing power have enabled the creation of large geospatial data sets, the sheer size of which necessitates automated processing. In this study, we describe a methodology to enable the automated mapping of landscape pattern domains using machine learning (ML) algorithms. From a freely available digital elevation model, derived data, and sample landclass boundaries provided by domain experts, our algorithm produces a dense map of the model region in Western Australia. Both random forest and support vector machine classification achieve approximately 98% classification accuracy with a reasonable runtime of 48 minutes on a single Intel® Core™ i7-8550U CPU core. We discuss computational resources and study the effect of grid resolution. Larger tiles result in a more contiguous map, whereas smaller tiles result in a more detailed and, at some point, noisy map. Diversity and distribution of landscapes mapped in this study support previous results. In addition, our results are consistent with the geological trends and main basement features in the region. Mapping landscape variability at a large scale can be used globally as a fundamental tool for guiding more efficient mineral exploration programs in regions under cover.

Geological map generalization driven by size constraints / Azimjon Sayidov in ISPRS International journal of geo-information, vol 9 n° 4 (April 2020)

Owing to the complexity of this particular map type, the process of geological map generalization has not been comprehensively addressed, and thus a complete automated system for geological map generalization is not yet available. In particular, while in other areas of map generalization constraint-based techniques have become the prevailing approach in the past two decades, generalization methods for geological maps have rarely adopted this approach. This paper seeks to fill this gap by presenting a methodology for the automation of geological map generalization that builds on size constraints (i.e., constraints that deal with the minimum area and distance relations in individual or pairs of map features). The methodology starts by modeling relevant size constraints and then uses a workflow consisting of generalization operators that respond to violations of size constraints (elimination/selection, enlargement, aggregation, and displacement) as well as algorithms to implement these operators. We show that the automation of geological map generalization is possible using constraint-based modeling, leading to improved process control compared to current approaches. However, we also show the limitations of an approach that is solely based on size constraints and identify extensions for a more complete workflow.

Spatial visualization of quantitative landscape changes in an industrial region between 1827 and 1883. Case study Katowice, southern Poland / Paweł Cybulski in Journal of maps, vol 16 n° 1 ([02/01/2020])

The comparison of changes, particularly components of the geographical environment, is based on two time periods – the year 1827 and 1883. Nineteenth-century maps were georeferenced, digitized and a series of thematic spatial visualizations presenting quantitative changes were generated by means of the Geographic Information System (GIS). The scale of the visualization created is 1:100,000 and the area is 16,400 ha. The spatial visualization of quantitative landscape change shows the development of the anthropogenic pressure in the form of settlement areas, raw materials extraction places, roads, and the decrease of natural environments, such as forests, rivers, and water bodies. These changes were caused mainly by the exploration of underground deposits and the rapidly growing population of Upper Silesia.

Mapping the wavelength position of mineral features in hyperspectral thermal infrared data / Christoph Hecker in International journal of applied Earth observation and geoinformation, vol 79 (July 2019)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of applied Earth observation and geoinformation > vol 79 (July 2019) . - pp 133-140 Titre : Mapping the wavelength position of mineral features in hyperspectral thermal infrared data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Christoph Hecker, Auteur ; Frank J.A. Van Ruitenbeek, Auteur ; Wim H. Bakker, Auteur ; Babatunde J.

On a per pixel basis, it extracts the wavelength position, which serves as a proxy of the mineralogy and the feature depth as a proxy for the relative abundance. This algorithm has been used with near and shortwave infrared data, but has not yet been tested on hyperspectral thermal infrared images. It is unclear what results are expected when the Wavelength Mapper algorithm is applied to hyperspectral thermal infrared data since reststrahlen features characteristically overlap in emissivity spectra. In this paper, the Wavelength Mapper is tested on a multi-flightline airborne hyperspectral TIR dataset acquired over the Yerington Batholith, Nevada. Observations were made in the 8.05–11.65 μm wavelength range to include thermal spectral features of major rock-forming minerals, and a new color ramp is created to separate quartz-rich rocks from plagioclase-rich rocks. Our results indicate that the Wavelength Mapper creates coherent spatial patterns across flightlines. The results displayed represent different types of igneous and sedimentary rocks, as well as the products of hydrothermal alteration via different colors, mainly based on the relative abundance of quartz, feldspar and garnet, as well as mica and epidote. Comparison with published maps indicate that the Wavelength Mapper represents for each pixel a parameter value that can be linked to the spectrally dominate rock-forming mineral of that area, as mapped with traditional fieldwork methods. In conclusion, the Wavelength Mapper can be applied to airborne hyperspectral TIR data to achieve a simple, repeatable, per-pixel overview map of the dominating rock-forming mineral occurrences.

This high potential zone encompasses several porphyry copper deposits under exploitation, development and exploration stages. The aim of this study is to evaluate Landsat-8 data and comparison with the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer data-sets for mapping hydrothermal alteration zones related to Cenozoic magmatic intrusions in Shahr-e-Babak region. Previous studies have proven the robust application of ASTER in lithological mapping and mineral exploration; nonetheless, the Landsat-8 data have high capability to map and detect hydrothermal alteration zones associated with porphyry copper and epithermal gold mineralization. In this investigation, several band combinations and multiplications, developed selective principal component analysis and image transformations were developed for discriminating hydrothermal alteration zones associated with porphyry copper mineralization using Landsat-8 data.
