description Geothermal systems are an important source of energy commonly available in active volcanic areas across Colombia and Latin-America. To build geothermal plants and generate electricity it is necessary to explore potential areas with meaningful temperature gradients and reservoirs. Geologic and feasibility studies are necessary to determine the potentials of such areas. This process requires a great amount of time and resources, so satellite imagery analysis is a widely used approach for a first survey, especially in remote areas that present logistic challenges. Freely available ASTER images allow the study of potential areas for geothermal energy, through the detection of certain minerals present in the surface generated by geothermal alteration. In this work, digital image processing techniques are applied across three study areas, El Tatio in Chile, Azufral and Nevado del Ruiz in Colombia. First, in order to carry out the image analysis, an atmospheric correction was performed to obtain reflectance values. Second, false color images were generated for an exploratory analysis. Third, band ratios were calculated to enhance absorption features for different clay minerals. Fourth, principal component analysis was applied, and component images were used to generate compositions to highlight areas with hydrothermal alterations. It was determined that 468 RGB color composition enhanced alterations, 4/7 band ratio eliminates errors of color composites and PCA discriminates between alteration minerals such as Kaolinite, Smectite, Illite and Alunite

Para construir plantas geotérmicas y generar electricidad es necesario explorar áreas potenciales con significativos gradientes de temperatura y reservorios. Estudios geológicos y de factibilidad son necesarios para determinar los potenciales en tales áreas. Este proceso requiere de una gran cantidad de tiempo y recursos. Análisis de imágenes satelitales son ampliamente usados como una aproximación a un primer estudio, especialmente en áreas remotas que presenta retos logísticos. Datos libremente disponibles como las imágenes ASTER, permiten el estudio de áreas potenciales para energía geotérmica, a través de la detección de ciertos minerales presentes en la superficie generados por alteración geotérmica. En este trabajo, algunas técnicas de procesamiento digital de imágenes son aplicados sobre tres áreas de estudio, El Tatio en Chile, Azufral y Nevado del Ruiz en Colombia. Primero, para llevar a cabo los análisis de imagen, correcciones atmosféricas fueron desarrolladas para obtener valores de reflectancia. Segundo, imágenes de color falso fueron generadas para un análisis exploratorio. Tercero, razones de bandas fueron calculados para resaltar características de absorción para diferentes minerales de la arcilla. Cuarto, análisis de componentes principales fueron aplicados, e imágenes de composición fueron usadas para generar un resaltado de las áreas con alteraciones hidrotermales. Se determinó que la composición de color RGB 468 resalta áreas con alteraciones, razón de bandas 4/7 elimina errores de composiciones de color y PCA discrimina entre minerales de alteración tales como Caolinita, Smectita, Illita y AlunitaGeocientíficoPregrado25 hojasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los AndesGeocienciasFacultad de CienciasDepartamento de Geocienciasinstname:Universidad de los Andesreponame:Repositorio Institucional SénecaUsing aster image processing for geothermal energy potential areasTrabajo de grado - Pregradoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesishttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_7a1fhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttp://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/TPGeología estructuralProcesamiento digital de imágenesFuentes hidrotermalesSensores remotosGeocienciasPublicationhttps://scholar.google.es/citations?user=lwGp9AkAAAAJvirtual::10976-1aef9efb6-9165-43e6-aed0-c5b0192634b0virtual::10976-1aef9efb6-9165-43e6-aed0-c5b0192634b0virtual::10976-1THUMBNAILu806682.pdf.jpgu806682.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg4872https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/5ad2f73a-886d-4e66-86d6-f3371f12e863/downloadb1261076485c854f298430e0578913ccMD55TEXTu806682.pdf.txtu806682.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain79414https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/d37529df-b49a-413e-b461-7246738fb4c0/download34d7b77acdcca5a0610ecb7dd975ee74MD54ORIGINALu806682.pdfapplication/pdf6052549https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/8102dc42-e09c-4914-984e-77ae204939a8/downloadeede49520a515b6295cac9ffafcab307MD511992/40380oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/403802024-03-13 14:19:16.482http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
