Summary The paper introduces the results of geomorphological demarcation of the Lena river delta, achieved by an analysis of remote sensing data with the use of GIS technologies. Also, it compares the achieved results and previously accomplished demarcation, based on field data. Signs of tectonic activity, expressed as linear structures and their belts on space images, are also considered.
Keywords river delta, remote sensing data, geomorphological region, linear structure.
