Optimum conditions for obtaining radiolocation image to study relief and loose deposits of arid regions

Abstract

Material obtained from radiolocation survey is an additional source of information used to work out geological and geomorphological problems. It may serve as the basis for geomorphological mapping, structural-geomorphological analysis and mapping of loose .deposits. The quantity of information obtained from radiolocation survey depends essentially on the observance of a number of conditions. While interpreting relief most important are technical conditions (height of the flight, direction of the flight and scale), while mapping loose deposits a right choice of a season is essential.
