Abstract

In this paper the assessment of hyper-altitude photogrpahs for geological interpretation is discussed. The interpretation of three satellite photographs, one from Zagros mountains, Iran and two from Morocco are discussed in detail. It is found that the near vertical photographs of Zagros mountain and East of Ifni Island, Morocco, provide a tremendous wealth of geological information which can safely be utilized for the preparation of good quality small scale geological maps. The oblique photograph of Morocco covering parts of Atlantic coast south of Agadir provides much less geological information compared to the vertical photos.
