Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present how geological information can be extracted from satellite imagery, and to show how this information can be merged with geological and geophysical data to build up consistent geological model for surface and subsurface. The moho depth, crustal thickness and geothermal of Libya are determined based on using of satellite gravity. The using data are currently available via Internet. It should be noted that, some software like Surfer 9.0 are used in this paper, but the main program is written in Fortran. Satellite imagery is a large scale surface geological mapping technique, which offers the unique opportunity to investigate the geological characteristic of the earth surface for specific areas to compute a precise and high resolution model from space, Satellite gravity is gravity field measurements that is available recently in the last decade. Without any need to accesses the area on the ground, it also improves our understanding of the overall earth tectonic history.
