Driven by the societal needs and improvement in sensor technology
and image processing techniques, remote sensing has become an
essential geospatial tool for understanding the Earth and managing
Human-Earth interactions. Remote Sensing for Sustainability
introduces the current state of the art remote sensing knowledge
integral for monitoring the world's natural resources and
environments, managing exposure to natural disasters and man-made
risks, and helping understand the sustainability and productivity
of natural ecosystems. Bridging the gap between remote sensing and
sustainability science this book examines theories and methods as
well as practical applications of sustainable development for
cities using remote sensing; focuses on remote sensing methods and
techniques for sustainable natural resources with emphasize on
forests; answers questions on how and what the remote sensing
methods and techniques can do for the sustainability of
environmental systems; and examines the issues of energy use and
sustainable energy sources using remote sensing technology in
countries such as Germany, China, the U.S, drawing on case studies
to demonstrate the applicability of remote sensing techniques. This
comprehensive guide, which can serve to professors, researchers,
and students alike, takes in consideration the United Nations set
of sustainable development goals and intends to contribute to the
GEO's Strategic Plan by addressing and exemplifying a number of
societal benefit areas of remote sensing data sets, methods, and
techniques for sustainable development.
