Addressing the need for updated information in remote sensing,
Introduction to Remote Sensing, Second Edition provides a full and
authoritative introduction for scientists who need to know the
scope, potential, and limitations in the field. The authors discuss
the physical principles of common remote sensing systems and
examine the processing, interpretation, and applications of data.
This new edition features updated and expanded material, including
greater coverage of applications from across earth, environmental,
atmospheric, and oceanographic sciences. Illustrated with remotely
sensed color images from satellites and aircraft, it also outlines
data acquisition and analysis.
New to this edition:
- Details of satellite systems launched since the first
edition
- Sections on airborne lidar for land surveys and airborne gamma
ray spectroscopy
- A section on interferometric synthetic aperture radar
- Expanded discussions of filtering of images
- Updates to a number of recent applications, particularly some
that make use of global datasets
Suitable for students and professionals with some background in
the physical sciences, this book comprehensively surveys the basic
principles behind remote sensing physics, techniques, and
technology.
