This textbook is one of the first to explain the fundamentals and
applications of remote sensing at both undergraduate and graduate
levels. Topics include definitions and a brief history of payloads
and platforms, data acquisition and specifications, image
processing techniques, data integration and spatial modeling, and a
range of applications covering terrestrial, atmospheric,
oceanographic and planetary disciplines. The policy and law issues
of remote sensing and the future trends on the horizon are also
covered. Remote sensing is an exciting, dynamic technology that is
transforming the Earth sciences - terrestrial, atmospheric, and
marine - as well as the practices of agriculture, disaster
response, engineering, natural resources, providing evidence in
legal cases and documented humanitarian crises, and many other
fields. Increasingly, understanding of these techniques will be
central to a number of disciplines, particularly as the technology
advances.

"Remote Sensing"provides information on how remote sensing relates
to the natural resources inventory, management, and monitoring, as
well as environmental concerns. It explains the role of this new
technology in current global challenges. "Remote Sensing" will
discuss remotely sensed data application payloads and platforms,
along with the methodologies involving image processing techniques
as applied to remotely sensed data. This title provides information
on image classification techniques and image registration, data
integration, and data fusion techniques. How this technology
applies to natural resources and environmental concerns will also
be discussed.
