NOAA-AVHRR, LAC-imagery is a synoptic tool that has proven applications to the identification and mapping of palaeolandforms and geologic structures within the vast and relatively inaccessible arid and semi-arid regions of the Australian continent. The reconstruction of previously unmapped surface and sub-surface features, in regions nominated as prime exploration zones, aids the definition of tectonic environments which may be conducive to the location of groundwater, hydrocarbon resources and mineral deposits. The interpretation of enhanced NOAA-AVHRR imagery from the NOAA satellite series provides a rapid means of assessing the potential of partially explored regions for a low financial outlay per unit area covered. The multidate, multitemporal availability and multispectral nature of NOAA-AVHRR imagery permits a diurnal and seasonal investigation of a region using reflected and thermal wavebands of the electromagnetic spectrum. This paper discusses the enhancements, procedures and benefits of using NOAA-AVHRR imagery to identify sub-surface structures in the desert regions of the Canning and Officer basins.
