Abstract

Erg of Gavkhooni Playa is one of the important geomorphologic landforms of Quaternary period in Iran. The area is located on the western part of Gaovkhoni Playa and 140 km to the Southeast of Isfahan, Iran. This study presents a display of landform of Erg and the area has been divided into three parts (NorthCentral and South). The objective of this study is to identify geomorphologic facieses by GIS t and RS. The research method is a processing technique such as basis analyzing, a composite of panchromatic band with multi-spectral band, to examine line spectral curved, to examine optimum composites using an enhancement method such as filtering and contrast. As a result, to display sand landforms and geomorphologic facieses such as Barkhan, Safe, Star hill, playa's facieses, Skirt and Delta, Sand Zone and the sediment between the hills and geomorphologic landform map are based on Erg of Gavkhoni Playa and geomorphologic facieses of the area.
