photogeologic , also: photogeological

Mappers use a stratigraphic approach pioneered in the early 1960s for photogeologic studies of the Moon.

A number of reports were produced by the Military Geologists covering the moon, including the first photogeologic map of the near side.

Alba's well preserved lava flows and faults provide an excellent photogeologic record of the volcano's evolution.

In 1959, the Survey compiled a photogeologic map of the Earth's satellite, the Moon, and began studies of tektites and impact craters.

Fluvial-deltaic deposits are present in Eberswalde Crater and elsewhere, and photogeologic evidence suggests that many craters and low lying intercrater areas in the southern highlands contain Noachian-aged lake sediments.
