Remote Sensing and Geology of Glass Buttes, Oregon

Published by Ormat Nevada Inc | Department of Energy | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2019-02-21T22:43:35Z
This data set includes Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data, a remote sensing processing report, and a geologic map of the Glass Buttes study area for ORMAT. The total area flown for the LiDAR remote sensing was 86,631 acres to fully encompass the area of interest (84,849 acres). The "LiDAR Remote Sensing Report" reflects statistics for the overall LiDAR survey. An airborne hyperspectral scanner imagery survey over an area in Glass Buttes, Oregon. The "HyMap Survey Processing Report" describes the processing that has been applied to the HyMap data to produce a number of image products including overview colour composites, decorrelation colour composites, minimum noise fraction (MNF) colour composites, and unmixed end-member mineral map. To produce these products the data first has various processes applied to it that converts the raw data into reflectance imagery which is then geometrically corrected and radiometrically leveled so that seamless image mosaics are produced. A detailed geologic map with cross sections of the Glass Buttes Volcanic Complex, Oregon is also included.
