This introductory text presents an up-to-date overview of the most widely used forms of remote sensing imagery and their applications in plant sciences, hydrology, earth sciences and land uses analysis. This revised and updated second edition includes coverage of the recently declassified CORONA imagery and other topics of current significance, plus new chapters on hyperspectral remote sensing and global remote sensing. In addition, there is a chapter on digital sensing featuring an essential discussion of the use of the Internet in remote sensing and includes a list of relevant World Wide Web addresses. Intended for both undergraduate and graduate use, the text is designed to enable instructors to select and alter the sequence of chapters to meet the requirements of their course.
