Environmental Remote Sensing From Regional To Global Scales (Pb 2013)

Remote sensing by satellites provides scientists with powerful means of analyzing the terrestrial environment in fields as diverse as meteorology, agriculture, town planning or ecology. Allied to the powerful computer-based methodologies of Geographic Information Systems and image processing and cartographic techniques, perhaps its most important aspect is the way Environmental Remote Sensing (ERS) can allow synoptic interpretation of complex geographical phenomena from global to local scalesPartial table of contentsEnvironmental Issues at Regional to Global Scales (P.
