    • Book
    Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.39 .W46 2010
    ISBN: 9780071606530
    Maximize a geographical information tool by incorporating it with up-to-date remotely sensed data GIS is predominantly a data-handling technology, while remote sensing is a data retrieval and analysis technology. This book addresses the need to combine remotely sensed data with cartographic, socioeconomic, and environmental data and GIS functionalities. Remote Sensing and GIS Integration begins with theoretical discussions, followed by a series of application areas in urban and environmental studies that employ the integration of remote sensing and GIS. ...
  • Cover artEnvironmental sensing: analytical techniques for Earth observation by James K. Lein
    • Book
    Call Number: Baker-Berry GE 149 .L55 2012
    ISBN: 9781461401421
    Remote sensing has witnessed a renaissance as new sensor systems, data collection capabilities and image processing methodologies have expanded the technological capabilities of this science into new and important applications areas. Perhaps nowhere has this trend been more evident than in the study of earth environments. Within this broad application area remote sensing has proven to be an invaluable asset supporting timely data gathering at a range of synoptic scales, facilitating the mapping of complex landscapes and promoting the analysis of environmental process. ...
  • Cover artGIS and remote sensing in hydrology, water resources and environment by Yangbo Chen, ed. ... [et al.]

  • Cover artRemote sensing of glaciers: techniques for topographic, spatial and thematic mapping of glaciers by Petri Pellikka; W. Gareth Rees, eds.
    • Book
    Call Number: Baker-Berry GB 2401.72 .R42 P45 2010
    ISBN: 9780203851302
    Glaciers and ice sheets have been melting significantly during recent decades, posing environmental threats at local, regional and global scales. Changes in glaciers are one of the clearest indicators of alterations in regional climate, since they are governed by changes in accumulation (from snowfall) and ablation (by melting of ice). ...
  • Cover artRemotely sensed cities by Victor Mesev, ed.
    • Book
    Call Number: Baker-Berry HT 166 .R3574 2003
    ISBN: 9780415260459
    New urban applications are emerging for remote sensing, in particular with the use of high-resolution data for measuring, monitoring and analysis. This comes through the use of high spatial resolution imaging, such as for precision mapping of cities; new techniques for population mapping; extracting urban land use features, and evaluating the city energy patterns; and through the use of night-time imagery for determining populations and economic activity, particularly on a global scale. Remotely Sensed Cities helps to redress the balance with remote sensing books, most of which are dedicated to the physical environment. ...
  • Cover artUncertainty in remote sensing and GIS by Peter M. Atkinson; Giles M. Foody, eds.
    • Book
    Call Number: Baker-Berry G 70.4 .U52 2002
    ISBN: 9780470844083
    Remote sensing and geographical information science (GIS) have advanced considerably in recent years. However, the potential of remote sensing and GIS within the environmental sciences is limited by uncertainty, especially in connection with the data sets and methods used. In many studies, the issue of uncertainty has been incompletely addressed. The situation has arisen in part from a lack of appreciation of uncertainty and the problems it can cause as well as of the techniques that may be used to accommodate it. This book provides general overviews on uncertainty in remote sensing and GIS that illustrate the range of uncertainties that may occur, in addition to describing the means of measuring uncertainty and the impacts of uncertainty on analyses and interpretations made. ...
