Description :
In order to delineate the geomorphic features of the island of Lesvos, Greece, fieldwork and digital satellite (LANDSAT-5/TM) data analysis were combined. The main image analysis techniques involved in this study were principal component analysis (PCA) and false color composite (FCC). These techniques led to the creation of enhanced satellite images with respect to the topographic and geomorphologic characteristics of the island. The final digitally enhanced LANDSAT-5/TM images have been used to interpret and map the geomorphic features of Lesvos. Discussion of the results.
