Title :
An investigation of textural characteristic for geological purposes
Abstract :
Assessment of an investigation of the textural characteristics associated with statistical parameters (variance, entrophy, contrast and energy) was applied to satellite data. This paper shows a simple investigation of the characteristics of an image through texture image associated with statistical parameters which will become an important factor for geological analysis. The author found that the necessity of association between characteristic of texture image, and statistical parameters in order to know the heterogeneity/homogeneity and uniformity of texture area, areal changes of boundary of geologic units and topographic features
