| Summary: | Geological mapping on the area with steep topography and high dense of
vegetation has a high level of difficulty. One of the methods that can be applied to
support geological mapping is using remote sensing method. Satellite images used
in this research are Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) 2 Phase Array Type
L-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) 2 because it has 22.9 cm (L-Band) on
its wavelength that able to penetrate the vegetation canopy and it is not limited by
the weather or acquisition time. This research is aimed to identify the geological
setting using ALOS 2 PALSAR 2 that proved with the geological mapping. The
research was done in Kendang Volcano, Bandung regency and Garut regency, West
Java. Stratigraphy in the research area divided into Khuluk Kendang and Khuluk
Papandayan and divided into 11 units of lithology. In the study area, Khuluk
Kendang consisted of three Gumuk, namely Gumuk Jaya, Gumuk Cigangsa, and
Gumuk Darajat. Khuluk Papandayan just consist of Gumuk Puntang. Geological
structure in the study area form a Dextral Fault near Darajat and Puntang area
that showed by presence of altered rocks, springs, and fumaroles. Field observation
result supported by petrography analysis showed that lithology in the study area
consisted of andesite, pyroclastic breccia, tuff breccia, and tuff lapilli. Composite
RGB: HV HH VV shows a red color indicated dense vegetation area, green coor
indicates short vegetation area, and blue color indicates wetlands area. Resistant
lithology shows a rough relief characterized by bright white hue while less resistant
lithology shows a subtle relief characterized by a darker hue in ALOS 2 PALSAR
2. Magnetic susceptibility measurement show that lava product have susceptibility
values more than 10 × 10-3 whereas in pyroclastic product having a susceptibility
values less than 10 × 10-3. |
