High Spatial Resolution Remote Sensing

ISBN: 0429893000
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
High spatial resolution remote sensing is an area of considerable current interest and builds on developments in object-based image analysis, commercial high-resolution satellite sensors, and UAVs. It captures more details through high and very high resolution images (10 to 100 cm/pixel). This unprecedented level of detail offers the potential extraction of a range of multi-resource management information, such as precision farming, invasive and endangered vegetative species delineation, forest gap sizes and distribution, locations of highly valued habitats, or sub-canopy topographic information. Information extracted in high spatial remote sensing data right after a devastating earthquake can help assess the damage to roads and buildings and aid in emergency planning for contact and evacuation. To effectively utilize information contained in high spatial resolution imagery, High Spatial Resolution Remote Sensing: Data, Analysis, and Applications addresses some key questions: What are the challenges of using new sensors and new platforms? What are the cutting-edge methods for fine-level information extraction from high spatial resolution images? How can high spatial resolution data improve the quantification and characterization of physical-environmental or human patterns and processes? The answers are built in three separate parts: (1) data acquisition and preprocessing, (2) algorithms and techniques, and (3) case studies and applications. They discuss the opportunities and challenges of using new sensors and platforms and high spatial resolution remote sensing data and recent developments with a focus on UAVs. This work addresses the issues related to high spatial image processing and introduces cutting-edge methods, summarizes state-of-the-art high spatial resolution applications, and demonstrates how high spatial resolution remote sensing can support the extraction of detailed information needed in different systems. Using various high spatial resolution data, the third part of this book covers a range of unique applications, from grasslands to wetlands, karst areas, and cherry orchard trees.

Processing of Remote Sensing Data
Author: ColetteM. GirardPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351421301
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 518
Book Description
Containing useful information sources for the management of natural resources, this comprehensive text covers a large range of spatial resolutions and spectral characteristics. The book deals with the data sources and their physical interpretation, as well as processing techniques, such as visual interpretation and automated classifications, textural and structural processing and photogrammetry. There is a section on accuracy assessment and various applications relating to crops, grasslands, soils, landscapes, mines and coasts. The CD-ROM contains software and image data sets explaining the statistical methods of reference and contains a light version of the TeraVue software enabling the reader to compute the different processing spatial data.
