Course content
Within the framework of this discipline, the theoretical and methodological principles of lineament analysis are considered as an independent direction of research into the organization of the structure of the earth's crust. The course consists of two parts. The first is devoted to the study of the history of the development of the ideas of lineament analysis, such theoretical issues as classification, structure, properties, origin of lineaments, methods of their selection. The second is the use of the possibilities of lineament analysis in morphostructural studies of the relief, such as the selection, study and mapping of morphostructures of various types and ranks.
