Abstrakt: In a pilot study, hyperspectral image analysis was applied to four boreholes from the North Midlands Block in Ireland. The selected holes are extremely well characterised lithologically and have a detailed micropalaeontology accurately constraining stratigraphic positions. Hyperspectral facies were defined using features extracted from the hyperspectral data and compared with existing litho- and biostratigraphic logs and samples. These were able to distinguish changes in the lithologies of the cores and were useful for defining unbiased lithological contacts and for regional correlations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
