| Popis: | The aim of this work was to apply the LINE Algorithm (Segment Extraction Algorithm) on Landsat 8 images for automatic lineament extraction in the Denguélé district. The Landsat 8 images had previously been subjected to the technique of Principal Component Analysis (PCA). After that, we implemented the LINE algorithm. Indeed, the LINE algorithm uses the following six (6) parameters : RADI (Radius of the filter) for improving the quality of the input image, GTHR (Threshold of the contour gradient), LTHR (Threshold of the contour length), FTHR (Threshold of mounting error), ATHR (Angular difference threshold between two contours ) and DTHR (Distance chaining threshold to link two contours ) for lineament discrimination. Analysis of the principal components PCA 1, PCA2 and PCA3 of bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 of the Landsat 8 images shows that they contain respectively 79.57; 15.88 and 2.15%, this represents overall 97.6% of all channels. 3468 lineaments were extracted. The minimum and maximum lengths of the lineaments extracted are respectively 4201.08 m and 16167.59 m and their cumulative length is 18 919 517.9 m. The lineaments average lengths are 5.55 km; 5.75 km; 5.6 km and 5.40 km respectively for NE-SW, NS, E-W and NW-SE directions. The analysis of the directions of the lineaments using a rose diagram with 10 ° of frequency, shows that the dominant directions are NE-SW (31.83% of the total lineaments), EW (28.71% of the total lineaments) and NS (27.91% of the total lineaments). |
