  ABSTRACT: There are several techniques that were developed for determining the linear features. Lineament extractionfrom satellite data has been the most widely used applications in geology. In the present study, lineament hasbeen extracted from the digital satellite scene (Landsat 5, TM data), in the region of Zahret Median situated in the north west of Tunisia. The image was enhanced and used for automatic extraction. Several directions of features were mapped. The directions of major invoices are NE-SW and NW-SE oriented. The validation of the obtained results is carried out by comparison with the results geophysics as well as to the studies previous of mapping developed in the sector of study.
