Abstract Pilot experiments developed in Los Andes Range, Central Zone of Chile, have obtained significant snd positive preliminary results on the use of multispectral and multitemporal satellite images to prepare snowmelt runoff forecasts by measuring snowcovered area in Andean watersheds. The same information is also very useful for studying regional and semi-regional geothermal activity along Los Andes in Chile. These results will be improved with the new satellite data to be available in the next years.
