RADAR AND GEOLOGY.

Abstract

The topographic mapping possibilities of radar have been investigated almost since radar was developed. The geological interpretation of P.P.I. scope photography is discussed with possible explanations for the geological expression of certain features. The example of radar ice mapping is given and the radar geology of part of Eastern Canada described. The radar geology of Scotland is briefly described. The application of radar photography to the study of geological structures is recommended as a new and possibly unique method. (Author)
