Abstract

Information is provided on the applications of remote sensing to regional geological survey and mapping on medium and small scale over recent years in China. The work began from establishing interpretation key for strata, magmatic rocks and regional structures. Preliminary results have been obtained. It is explained through case histories in Sichuan Province and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. By means of remote sensing the time of compilation has been shortened and the cost was reduced, the accuracy and quality of geological maps was improved, and abundant basic geological data were provided for exploration. In addition, prediction of various ore targets were defined along with new ideas for geological scientific research.
