19 ArcGIS Supervised Classification Software: ArcGISPro Upstream Information Management, 2017
20 Way Forward & Initial Conclusions 20 Upstream Information Management, 2017
21 Way Forward Smooth and generalize the 13 class unsupervised rendering to create a preliminary lithologic map Continue researching expected alteration minerals and any desert coatings (varnish, glaze, etc.) for targeted application in unmixing methods Compare spectral signatures of the rock samples and attempt matching Refine supervised classifications Build a digital surface map (DEM) Thank you to Bill Baugh of DigitalGlobe for sharing his expertise & WV-3 Indices! 21 Upstream Information Management, 2017
22 Preliminary Conclusions Despite a number of caveats Unsupervised classifications match the geologic model fairly well Effective supervised classifications require additional analysis Spectral variation penetrates any desert coatings & alluvium Efficacy of unsupervised classifications for diapir mapping 22 Upstream Information Management, 2017
23 Thank You! 23 Upstream Information Management, 2017
