             abstract = "LANDSAT imagery provides a synoptic view and a repetitive coverage 
                         of the earth's surface. Various disciplines (e.g. agriculture, 
                         forestry, geography, geology, etc.)are employing LANDSAT data to 
                         aid in understanding many previously difficult problems and to 
                         provide new information. The geological application of LANDSAT 
                         imagery is based on the interpretation of such features as 
                         regional fractures and folds, lineament and drainage patters, and 
                         general lithologic variations; interpretation, in turn, is 
                         effected by the recognition of variations in tone and texture, 
                         landforms, remified channels and land usage. Mineral and petroleum 
                         exploration may be aided through the identification of anomalous 
                         patterns and features, and suitable structures that may be 
                         indicative of areas which warrant more detailed examination. 
                         Interpretation of images may be aided by the use of computers such 
                         as the IMAGE-100 system. The latter has the ability to extract 
                         thematic information and to enhance the image so that the user may 
                         see certain features better. Optimum use of LANDSAT imagery could 
                         result in considerable reduction in cost and time in the 
                         reconnaissance geological mapping of large areas.",
