The ArcGIS imagery book: new view, new vision by Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.212 .A7353 2016ISBN: 9781589484627Explore how imagery and remote sensing power modern GIS. With The ArcGIS Imagery Book, you will roll up your sleeves and quickly begin putting imagery to smarter, more skillful use with your GIS.
Classification methods for remotely sensed data by Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.4 .T784 2009ISBN: 9781420090727Publication Date: 2nd ed.Keeping abreast of new developments, Classification Methods for Remotely Sensed Data, Second Edition provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the entire field of classification methods applied to remotely sensed data. This second edition provides seven fully revised chapters and two new chapters covering support vector machines (SVM) and decision trees. ...
Global mapping of human settlement: experiences, datasets, and prospects by Call Number: Baker-Berry GF101 .G57 2009 textISBN: 9781420083392The use of remote sensors for human settlement mapping and monitoring holds great promise for numerous fields of study, including urban planning and global environmental change and sustainability. While the potential for this technology is difficult to measure, achieving useful results at a regional or global level is but a recent accomplishment. Global Mapping of Human Settlement is the first book to provide a comprehensive overview of the methodologies, datasets, and approaches related to the use of remotely sensed data to map human settlements at the global scale, as well as the experiences encountered with their application. ...
Introduction to subsurface imaging by Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.4 .S1654 2011ISBN: 9781107000810Describing and evaluating the basic principles and methods of subsurface sensing and imaging, Introduction to Subsurface Imaging is a clear and comprehensive treatment that links theory to a wide range of real-world applications in medicine, biology, security and geophysical/environmental exploration. It integrates the different sensing techniques (acoustic, electric, electromagnetic, optical, x-ray or particle beams) by unifying the underlying physical and mathematical similarities, and computational and algorithmic methods. ...
Time-sensitive remote sensing by Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.4 .T56 2015ISBN: 9781493926015This book documents the state of the art in the use of remote sensing to address time-sensitive information requirements.
Contributions of land remote sensing for decisions about food security and human health: workshop report by Call Number: eBookISBN: 9780309102957Land remote sensing: the use of space-based satellite technologies to obtain information on environmental variables such as land-use and land-covering combination with other types of data can provide information on changes in the Earth's surface and atmosphere that are critical for forecasting and responding to human welfare issues, such as disease outbreaks, food shortages, and floods. This book summarizes a workshop on the potential contributions of remotely sensed data to land-use and land-cover change and ways to use physical, biological, temporal, and social characteristics of particular locations to support decisions about human welfare. ...
Land resources monitoring, modeling, and mapping with remote sensing by Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.4 .L33 2016ISBN: 9781482217957A volume in the three-volume Remote Sensing Handbook series, Land Resources Monitoring, Modeling, and Mapping with Remote Sensing documents the scientific and methodological advances that have taken place during the last 50 years.
Spatial statistics: geospatial information modeling and thematic mapping by Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.3 .K35 2011ISBN: 9781420069761Geospatial information modeling and mapping has become an important tool for the investigation and management of natural resources at the landscape scale. Spatial Statistics: GeoSpatial Information Modeling and Thematic Mapping reviews the types and applications of geospatial information data, such as remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), and GPS as well as their integration into landscape-scale geospatial statistical models and maps. The book explores how to extract information from remotely sensed imagery, GIS, and GPS, and how to combine this with field data--vegetation, soil, and environmental--to produce a spatial model that can be reconstructed and displayed using GIS software. ...
Earth observations from space: the first 50 years of scientific achievements by Call Number: Baker-Berry QE 33.2 .R4 N385 2008ISBN: 9780309110952Over the past 50 years, thousands of satellites have been sent into space on missions to collect data about the Earth. Today, the ability to forecast weather, climate, and natural hazards depends critically on these satellite-based observations. At the request of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the National Research Council convened a committee to examine the scientific accomplishments that have resulted from space-based observations. This book describes how the ability to view the entire globe at once, uniquely available from satellite observations, has revolutionized Earth studies and ushered in a new era of multidisciplinary Earth sciences. ...
Passive microwave remote sensing of the Earth: physical foundations by Call Number: Baker-Berry QE 33.2 .R4 S48 2003ISBN: 9783540439462The most comprehensive description of the physical foundations of methods and instruments in the fields of passive remote sensing applied to investigations of the Earth, Solar system bodies and space. Emphasis is placed on the physical aspects necessary to judge the possibilities and limitations of passive remote sensing methods in specific observation cases. ...
