579 Symposium on Remote Sensing for Resources Development and Environmental Management / Enschede / August 1986 Geological analysis of the satellite lineaments of the Vistula Delta Plain, Zulawy Wislane, Poland Barbara Daniel Danielska & Stanislaw Kibitlewski Photogeological Department, Geological Institute, Warsaw, Poland Andrzej Sadurski Hydrotechnics Department, Technical University, Gdansk, Poland ABSTRACT: Regular pattern of Landsat lineaments is observed in the Vistula Delta Plain,North Poland. Geological interpretation of the lineaments was carried out using visual, analog and statistical methods. The results show that lineaments should be understood as traces of buried disjunctive structures of Upper Cretaceous brittle rocks underlying there the soft and loose Cainozoio sediments. The data obtained from remote sensing materials enable a re-interpretation of the geological model of the terrain and an improvement of the knowledge on teoto- nic character of peri-Baltic syneolize as well. i INTRODUCTION The numerous lineaments of a different character might be observed in the Landsat satellite images in the area of the Vistula Delta Plain /Zulawy Wig lane/ i.e. in the mouth region of Vistula river, northern Poland /Fig.l/. 4 00Z02-098 Figure i. Scene: E-30433-09081 MSS-5,12 May 1979. In vestigated area and image position are marked. Some of the notioed lineaments are due to the human impact /oanals,dams, embankments, roads, railways eto./ and were eliminated from the further discussion. The other ones, however, seem to be traces of the fea tures of the inner structure, at least sub-Holooene ones. In contrary to the adjacent morainio plateaux the area of Vistula Delta Plain represents a flat, lithologioally monotonous deltaio region with homo geneous relief, structure and lithology of Quaternary sediments and shows different vegetation cover. In the satellite images some regional lineaments might be no tioed, which continuously and with no ohange of direc tion cut different geomorphological units as - from the west to the east - Kashubian morainic plateau, Vistula Delta Plain and Elblf^g morainio plateau. It suggests therefore, that they reflect even deeper ele ments than those of Quaternary, or even Tertiary series, also in respect to the area of Zulawy them selves. The hitherto recognition of inner structure of peri- -Baltic syneolise, the unit containing Vistula Delta Plain, has been based only on a small number of deep boreholes. The near-surface geological structure, how ever, seems to be better reoognized due to the numer ous although not deep and dispersed boreholes done mainly to the hydrogeologioal purposes. Many geologi cal problems remain unsolved, in this number - those of Quaternary deposits, teotonio pattern of Cretaceous and the whole Permian-Mesozoio series and Palaeozoio one. The geologioal significance of the remote sensing materials interpretation has been reoently more and more often confirmed by the results of the standard methods. It seems, therefore, reasonable to introduce this aspect of modem geologioal mapping to the geo logioal recognition of the Vistula Delta Plain. The photogeologloal interpretation applied to the area of Zulawy Wislane is aimed at a characteristics of lineaments observed in Landsat images, as well as on explanation of their origin and geologioal signi- cance. 2 METHODS USED Photogeologloal interpretation based on Landsat imar- ges was done, namely soenes: E-2230-09063, E-02031- 09021, E-02643-08513, E-21165-08355, E-3043>-09081. They were analysed visually and with application of analog device /lx/, simultaneously by two persons /in aim to get the higher credibility of interpretar- tion data/. An interpretation soetoh was oompared with the known surfaoe elements of the geological structu re /i.e. geologioal maps 1:200 000/, Since no relation between these elements and features under interpreta tion /as: tones, oolours, structure and texture of the image/ has been found, the further work was concentra ted on the recognition of the lineaments. The lineaments display a distinot regularity, con tinuity and ordering /the last fact confirmed also by the statistical analysis results - Sadurski,Kibitlew ski, Daniel-Danielska-in print/. A map of lineaments pattern was compiled taking their visibility as the only the interpretation crite rion into aooount. Suoh the pattern wets geologically analysed and interpreted in relation to the existing geologioal materials including the results of the new est hydrogeologioal boreholes /Fig.3/. Most of them reaoh a top surfaoe or uppermost strata of Cretaoeous sediments. Numerous geologioal oross-sectlons of the sediments building the delta plain unit were prepared. Interre lations between llthologioal and/or genetioal boundar ies and distribution of the lineaments along the oross-section lines were studied, as well.
