Imaging buried geological boundaries has an important role during the interpretation of potential field data of Geophysics. There are lots of techniques, which were generated from potential field’s vector components and gradient tensors, to detect boundaries of the buried structure which causes anomaly. In this study, introducing the different edge detection techniques for imaging buried geological boundaries and comparing their performances were aimed. These techniques have advantages and drawbacks between each other and also depend on geological model below the surface. For that reason, they should be tested for the synthetic data from various complex models, before application to field data. Additionally, a new edge detection filter, named as Total Horizontal Derivative of Gravity Gradient Tensors, has presented. This filter is successful on detection of the boundaries of shallow structures and also the boundaries with high density contrast.
