abstract = "This investigation focuses on the evaluation of RADARSAT-1 data
for geological mapping in the Carajas Mineral Province, Brazilian
Amazon region. Visual analysis were carried out based on
monoscopic and stero standard mode data (ascending and descending
orbits). RADARSAT / Gamma (Total Count)integrated product was also
evaluated aiming at more detailed geological mapping in the Serra
Pelada area. The results of this research emphasize the importance
of using ascending and descending RADARSAT data for tectonical and
regional geological mapping in this kind of tropical rainforest
environment (mountainous and highly dissected terrain). In
addition, the research reinforces the practical importance of
using SAR integrated product as a powerful tool for geological
mapping in the Amazon Region when airborne geophysical data are
available.",
