Abstract

Lineament analysis is an important structural and geological indicator for determining general and local tectonic trends and fracture zones in rocks, especially in mining zones. In this study we used optical and radar satellite data to analyze the density map of lineaments structure data for territory of Kashkadarya region - one of the main gas producing regions in Uzbekistan. The results show that according to Landsat 8 high density of lineaments is located near geology faults. During a detailed exploration, the density map according to SRTM data found that at an azimuth of 1800, 2250, 2700, and 3150 the density is much higher than at an azimuth of 00, 450, 900, and 1350. KEYWORDS: lineaments, optical and radar data, density map, hillshade, rose-diagram
