The increasing of burst gas and locally earthquacke to be theprinciple one to predict the possibility of volcano eruption for anticipation and decrease the impact ofvolcano eruption. The research objective was to determain the characteristics of rocks formationsurrounding Ranau Lake using Landsat Imagery.
