This book focuses solely on the issues of agriculture and forest
productivity analysis with advanced modeling approaches to bring
solutions to food-insecure regions of South and Southeast Asia.
Advanced modeling tools and their use in regional planning provide
an outstanding opportunity to contribute toward food production and
environments. In this book, leading-edge research methodologies
related to remote sensing and geospatial variability of soil,
water, and regional agricultural production indicators and their
applications are introduced together—a unique feature of the book
is the domain of regional policy perspectives and allied fields. In
regional policy planning, agriculture and forestry have a key
role in food security and environmental conservation that depends
on the geo-spatial variability of these factors. Â Over the
years, nature and climate have determined the variability of soil
type, soil quality, geographical deviation for habitat, water
quality, water sources, urban influences, population growth, carbon
stock levels, and water resources with rain-fed or irrigated land
use practices.  In addition, human nutritional values
and dietary habits have brought cultural adaptation of either mono-
or multi-cropping patterns in the region. To encompass all these
above mentioned factors and classify regional variability for
policy planning, satellite remote sensing and geographical
information systems have the immense potential to increase
agricultural and forest productivity to ensure the resilience of
its sustainability. Therefore, the 13 chapters presented in this
book introduce modeling techniques using the signatures of
vegetation and water indices, land use and land change dynamics,
climatic, and socioeconomic criteria through spatial, temporal, and
statistical analysis. As well, remote sensing and in-depth GIS
analysis are integrated with machine and deep learning algorithms
to address natural uncertainties such as flash floods, droughts,
and cyclones in agricultural production management.
