Summary:Developments in remote sensing technology have greatly extended the range of data available to those studying the Earth from a distance. A remote sensing analyst can now choose from a wide range of spatial, spectral, temporal and radiometric scales to address a particular question.
This volume covers all the main fields of remote sensing in a very comprehendible manner. Most of the chapters are presented in a semi-historic account that shows the development of the field or in methods of data processing. The discussion is accompanied by high-quality color images and graphs in order to provide as full coverage of the topics as possible. The structure of the book is organized very systematically into sections, sub-sections and chapters. It may thus be used as a text book in various courses of remote sensing or as a book for independent learning in advanced studies. The target audiences are students and researchers from different fields such as geography, geology, and the natural and engineering science.
