Remote Sensing Applications to Geological Problems in Africa

Abstract

This special volume of the Journal of African Earth Sciences presents papers, that discuss the application of the rapidly evolving remote sensing technology to geological problems in Africa. The volume stems from a thematic session on “Remote sensing applications to African (and Middle East) Geology and resources” that was organized during the 20th Colloquium on African Geology (CAG 20) which was held in Orléans, France in June 2004. The idea for both the thematic session and the special volume was initiated and supported by the JAES Editorial Board member, Professor Wladyslaw Altermann, Universities of Munich and Pretoria, to whom we would like to express our sincere thanks.
