Abstract :
Recently geologists have been recognizing the importance of line or edge-like features called lineaments that are commonly detected in Landsat terrain reconnaissance. Lineaments are piecewise discontinuous global lines or edges of low curvature, and they generally have widely varying widths or edge characteristics that make them difficult to detect.
