[S.l.] : Wiley, 2011. 408 p. ; Urban Remote Sensing is designed for upper level undergraduates, graduates, researchers and practitioners, and has a clear focus on the development of remote sensing technology for monitoring, synthesis and modeling in the urban environment. It covers four major areas: the use of high-resolution satellite imagery or alternative sources of image date (such as high-resolution SAR and LIDAR) for urban feature extraction; the development of improved image processing algorithms and techniques for deriving accurate and consistent information on urban attributes from remote sensor data; the development of analytical techniques and methods for deriving indicators of socioeconomic and environmental conditions that prevail within urban landscape; and the development of remote sensing and spatial analytical techniques for urban growth simulation and predictive modeling. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/047074958X/chopaconline-20 BK 0 0 0 0 REF REF REF 2014-05-30 10535.00 0 621.3678YAN (Shelf - 51B) 46220 2014-05-30 00:00:00 BK 0 0 0 0 REF REF REF 2014-05-30 10535.00 0 621.3678YAN (Shelf - 51B) 46221 2014-05-30 00:00:00 BK
