Abstract In recent years, remote sensing data are increasingly used in the practice of oil and gas prospecting. This article discusses the main methodological aspects of identifying oil and gas promising structures by using materials for interpreting remote sensing data and a complex of geological and geophysical data. Remotely sensed data exhibit a regional review of the various geological formations and tectonic fracture zone and faults that are otherwise not possible detection by human eyes on the ground. The method of structural interpretation space image allows you to: detail the internal structure of oil and gas regions; to reveal the position and features of the tectonic blocks, structures of the second and third (anticlines, synclines, monoclines, etc.) orders; identify major disruptive violations; identify chains of local structures; fix the transverse structural elements that determine tectonic fragmentation. By deciphering the remote sensing data, the distribution and nature of the lineament network marking disjunctive dislocations and zones of increased fracturing are revealed and analyzed, as well as ring structures are detected, which in most cases indicate local structures of the sedimentary cover at different depth sections. The lithology and lineament interpreted from these multi-level data were integrated with data collected from the ground.

By comparing WorlView-2 with other remote sensing data in the characteristics of spectral bands and spatial resolution, we found that all the eight bands of WorldView-2 are sensitive to lithology and helpful to distinguish them; besides, WorldView-2 provides a richer texture information with a high spatial resolution of 0.46m, which is also very important in geological interpretation of remote sensing. Therefore, WorldView-2 data has a strong advantage in geological applications. In the geological interpretation of the Kezile area in West Kunlun Mountain, different enhancement methods based on the spectrum, texture and geomorphology/vegetation were applyed to enhance the lithology information of WorldView-2 image, and it achieved a good effect. With the enhanced images of Kezile area, we subdivided the Jurassic, Cretaceous, Paleogene and Neogene into lithologies in detail, and completed the remote sensing geological interpretation map.

The application of the Arc SDM program on remote sensing for gold minerals ini an area can be implemented by proving the compatibility of the result of the interpretation of satellite image with conditions in the study area. Remote sensing method is able to detect potential locations with mineral deposits occurrence that has certain characteristics that can affect a certain aspect of exploration activities, namely time efficiency. Remote sensing is an art and technique for obtaining information on an object, area or data analysis phenomenon acquired with a device without having to have direct contact with the object, area or phenomenon studied. In remote sensing, exploration activities play an important role in terms of isolating the potential of seed sediment based on remote sensing models. The use of remote sensing method can reduce exploration costs because it only focuses on detailed surface area of research that have more potential for the existence of minerals. By using this remote sensing method, we can determine specific area to explore, researching in detail in the shortest time possible. Mapping method for the mineralization geological exploration activities in the intended gold-bearing areas can utilize remote sensing data in the form of Landsat ETM satellite images. This method is expected to be able to produce accurate, valid and up-to-date data that makes it possible to create geological interpretation maps in a relatively short time (Rapid Mapping).

The authors analyze the methods of engineering-geodetic and design of Railways in remote and sparsely populated areas. It is shown that one of the ways to improve the efficiency of design work significantly, especially for the design of roads in sparsely populated regions is the use of remote sensing materials and geoinformation technologies that enable you to apply the methods of geospatial and geological analysis, modeling and forecasting with the use of software and hardware systems of information support in design of Railways on the basis of computer geological interpretation of space survey materials. The problems of integrating geoinformation technologies in the system of computer-aided design of Railways are considered. The tasks of improving modern methods of engineering researches are set. This will significantly reduce the time and financial costs in the design, and rise the efficiency of engineering surveys.
