Abstract EN

This study included a comparison between both visual and digital interpretations of lineament patterns, which are located in Allan anticline Northern Iraq, using remote sensing techniques.

Results of field measurements of joints pattern that located in the central ridge of Allan anticline, showed a clear correlation with lineaments pattern which are Hekmat S.

AL-Daghastani Remote Sensing Center University of Mosul Basma Gh.

Ghanem Department of Geology College of Science University of Mosul interpreted by both (visual and digital) interpretations.

The dominance trends in the directions of Lineaments are include: North East- South West and North West- South East as well as the trend North – South.

These trends correspondence with the prevailing faults pattern in Allan anticline and the trends direction of tectonic forces in the region.

Digital analysis results of lineaments using PCI Geomatica program in the foot slope region of Allan anticline showing anomaly in some directions due to determine non-structural Lineaments which are reflect the boundaries of agriculture fields, therefore the integrations between the visual and digital interpretation of lineaments is very necessary to support morphotectonic analysis.
