METHOD OF SEARCHING FOR UNDERGROUND WATER

摘要

FIELD: physics.;SUBSTANCE: space and aerial images of the earth's surface are obtained in the visible band. Said images are processed. The obtained data are interpreted and resultant maps are drawn. Multiple-elevation aerial thermal imaging is carried out. Space and aerial spectrozonal images of the earth's surface are recorded in regions of the visible spectrum, as well as the near, middle and far infrared range. The spectrozonal images are processed by measuring intensity of the earth's thermal flux with subsequent instrument filtration of the thermal image. The structure of the thermal flux density of the geologic environment is formed by creating a three-dimensional model of block-fault structures in the far infrared spectrum. Horizontal media, vertical media and differential transformations of thermal flux are obtained from the formed model. The "stress" indicator of the state of the nature-landscape systems is determined based on the visible spectrum and the indicator of the state of vegetation and soil based on the near and middle infrared spectra. After interpretation of the obtained data, a three-dimensional image of the geologic environment is formed with selection of geothermal features. The location of underground water deposits and the location of the future well are determined from the geothermal features.;EFFECT: possibility of searching for deposits of underground water from the day surface to depth of tens of kilometres, high reliability and easy search, low labour consumption of the work.;17 cl
