DESCRIPTION:
Chapter 18 covers some geospatial analysis techniques in a very structured manner with appropriate examples and illustrations. These will help the beginners to understand geospatial technology better.A very rich glossary and bibliography at the end are for the benefit of the students.(added by author). Content and CoverageThe book is divided into two parts and comprises 20 chapters and two appendices. It is hoped that this survey of environmental remote sensing and GIS will attract and inspire a few individuals who might consider a specialized career in this field or in the broader fields allied with Earth System Science (ESS) and the environment. This part concen
It also presents the modern trends of remote sensing and GIS with an illustrated discussion on its numerous applications. The appendices provide the prerequisites required for understanding remote sensing and GIS technology.. Beginning with the history and basic concepts of remote sensing and GIS, the book gives an exhaustive coverage of optical, thermal and microwave remote sensing, global navigation satellite systems (such as GPS), digital photogrammetry, visual image analysis, digital image processing, spatial and attribute data model, geospatial analysis, and planning, implementation and management of GIS
A Thorough Compendium The first page should read: "DON'T PANIC!" It is a very thorough overview of every type and mode of remote sensing ever developed for mapping out the world as it is. In my own class we are not even using a third of what's in this book. Much of the stuff,(I would venture to say), one would never encounter in their career
