Mapping of damage zone heterogeneity along strike-slip faults

Key Points

• Damage zone heterogeneity varies significantly along strike-slip faults, indicating structural complexities.
• Among the analyzed sites, lineament density maps reveal essential geological features and patterns of deformation.
• Analysis utilizes generic mapping tools to generate comprehensive lineament density maps from field data across multiple locations.
• Findings support the understanding of fault dynamics and can inform geological modeling and earthquake preparedness.
