Such a great advantage makes an important contribution to the license evaluation with the satellite image analyses.

GEO-STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

Several geological problems can be solved by using satellite images or aerial photographs with the linear analysis technique. This very important technique can provide determinations of faults, boundaries of geological units, fold axes, and possible joint zones.

In remote sensing techniques, lineament analysis is also used in the determination of the existing fault and fold axes, weak zones, joint systems, and veins, as well as the definition of possible stress directions.

It is possible to define the directions of the identified linear features and reveal the main and regional stress directions as the results of the lineament analysis. Knowledge about the structural history and water presence of the region can be found by studying weak or joint zones with lineament analysis.

ORTHO-RECTIFICATION

Nowadays, all the satellite images have been recorded with coordinates that have random errors. Such errors are derived from the topography, the sensor itself, and the instrument's accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to use such images in detailed engineering projects and in target generation.

Orthorectification is a process applied to the satellite images to overcome these problems. Satellite images are purified as much as possible from the topographical impacts, registered in detail, and harmonized with the map projection systems, resulting in accurate maps by using the orthorectification process.

BASE MAP PRODUCTION

Base maps are detailed images produced by using high-resolution satellite images, which can be used in various detailed engineering applications such as dams, railways, highways, and construction.

We can produce these maps in accordance with the necessary precision values by ortorectifying high-resolution satellite images.

TOPOGRAPHICAL MAP PRODUCTION

Topographical maps are produced from stereo satellite images by using photogrammetric methods. Two satellite images of the same region are used, with approximately 60% laterally overlapping. Regional topographic information is obtained as a result of the precise georeferencing of these two satellite images.

Despite the changes in sensitivity according to the used satellite images, 1:5000-scale topographic data production is possible from satellite images.

You can contact us to obtain topographical data sets precisely and rapidly for the regions where no available topographical data exists.

GROUND DEFORMATION DETECTION-SUBSIDENCE

Ground subsidence, landslides, or subsidence can be caused by changes, depending on the artificial alterations. Recently, these changes have been detected more precisely and consistently by radar images.

Determination of the historical vertical movement of the area you are interested in has been possible since 1990. In addition, primarily the safety of the site can be ensured, and then the impacts of your project can be identified by the determination of present and forecasted ground subsidence.

It is possible to identify, define, and take action about the positive and negative effects of your project for requested periods by collecting information, as if, for example, 4 million GPS have been placed in a 2000 km² area.

GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS (GIS)

Geological services include the analyses of each mining license area by the specially expertized geologists and geological engineers.

We can contribute to your projects with our Qualified Person (QP) authorization. We can ensure that your projects will be realized to international standards, and we can add value to your projects during the feasibility and credit facility stages.

DECISION MAKING

GIS supports users in making decisions based on solutions related to the problems of the spatial data. We can provide proper solutions by using multi-criteria decision analysis for the “decision-making” mechanisms of the produced maps related to your project aim.

ADDITIONAL DATA PRODUCTION

You can produce new information from your data sets, and you can approach and evaluate your studies from different points of view with GIS studies. Do you know that you can produce slope and aspect additional maps of your study area by using the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data, which has been produced from topographical maps?

Similarly, revealing the drainage network and flow paths of the region and performing the density analysis is possible again by using the topographical data.

GEOLOGICAL DATA PRODUCTION-GIS

Do you need quick and easy access to information about your sampling point, such as its elevation, lithology, proximity to the fault and fold axis, or the distance to the nearest stream in your study area?

Your measurements in the field and the information about the formation or the geological structure are recorded instantaneously and automatically in the GIS environment. Consequently, you can produce data more rapidly and reach your results faster and more accurately in your office studies.

Various spatial data can be produced, queried, analyzed, and evaluated easily when GIS studies are included in geological studies.

DGPS MEASUREMENT

Do you know the precise coordinates of the sample collection points in your field studies?

You will have the coordinates of the point in the field with a few centimeters of precision, both horizontally and vertically, with the CORS-DGPS. You can make your maps coordinate with much more precision with CORS-DGPS by using the ground control points that you measure in the field.
