Title:
Computer-linked CCD camera for sediment shape analysis. Research technical completion report, A-081-IDA
Authors:
Prisbrey, K. A.; Rinker, R. E.; Aboukheshem, M. B.
Date Created (ISO Standard):
1983-03
Description:
A major problem with using chemical and mineralogical composition analysis to trace stream sediment origins is the cost. A solution to this problem is to use Fourier shape descriptors of individual sediment particles, which gives an inexpensive means of distinguishing sediments even with similar chemical and mineralogical characteristics. A CCD camera was linked to a PDP 11 computer to provide a rapid method of data gathering for such analysis.
