Aplicación de imágenes satelitarias a la caracterización del macizo de Valencia del Ventoso

Abstract

Valencia del Ventoso Massif (MW), (south Badajoz, Spain), is a late-hercynical inversely zonated pluton, composed by a wide range of lithologies, from ultramafic to granitic rocks. Landsat TM images has been digitally treated to verify satellitariah potential as a tool for cartographying plutons like MW. The treatment, based on the analysis of 6 bands' over the visible and near infrarred electromagnetic spectrum, has yield successful results, specially, on delimiting the contact, linear structures, and up to some extent, pluton inside and next lithdlogical bodies
