摘要：AbstractOne major purpose of interpretation of magnetic data is to highlight edges of geology structures. In this paper, we applied the edge methods such as the enhancement of total gradient (ETG), normalized horizontal gradient (TDX), theta map (TM) and fast sigmoid (FSED) methods to delineate geological structures that appear as lineaments in transformed magnetic anomaly maps. Initially, these methods were estimated on a magnetic model for understanding their capability. Further, we applied these methods to real aeromagnetic data for determining lineaments of the Wadi Umm Dulfah area. Additionally, the depths of the magnetic sources in the area were also computed by the tilt depth method. The obtained results indicate the presence in the study area of three major lineament trends in NW–SE, N-S, and NE–SW directions, and most of the lineaments are in the depth range of 0.1 km to 1 km. These results bring abetter understanding of the edge methods capability, as well as the geology structures of the Wadi Umm Dulfah area.
