Space images geomorphological interpretation experience with special reference to Tien Shan

Abstract

Analysis of distant images at various scales allows to identify morphostructures and morphosculptures of various order. Most promising method of relief's analysis by middle Scale images interpretation is morphostructural analysis; it includes consideration of decipherable characteristics which reflect tectonic features. Middle scale space images are most suitable for morphostructures and nlorphosculptures identification, which are mapping objects on the scale l:l000000 to l:2500000.
