Remote sensing is a dynamic research field with a range of applications in hazard detection, natural resource management, oceanography, geology and climate science. This book offers an overview of current applications and presents new advances and directions for future development. The first part of the book considers remote sensing applications. Topics include remote sensing in population analysis, healthcare, urban growth assessment and military applications. In part two, advanced techniques and platforms for remote sensing are presented. Topics include real-time image data compression and the cold gas propulsion system. In the third part, the remote sensing of Planet Earth is considered through topics including a comparative evaluation of classifiers for the analysis of land cover, remote sensing for tsunami disasters, and the applications of GNSS signals. Finally, in the fourth part, integrated approaches to the remote sensing of the environment are presented. Topics include remote sensing for water quality surveillance, detection of water pipes and leakages through remote sensing in rural situations, and remote sensing of air pollution from space. This is a wide-ranging book of interest to students, graduate students and researchers in this fast-developing field.
