Lineaments Study and Ground Water in Aizawl City, Mizoram
Dr. C. Ramhnehzauva
Abstract: Lineaments are essentially features on the land surface that reflect the subsurface planar structures. In recent years, the construction of lineament maps has assumed considerable significance for ground water occurrences and it also helps in evaluating the geomorphological and tectonic evolution of continental areas. Lineaments maps may be constructed from satellite imageries, aerial photographs and topographic sheets. This paper investigates the salient characteristics of the lineaments and their relationship with the ground water.
