*Up to date discussions of accuracy assessment, multitemporal change detection, and digital preprocessing.
*Hyperlinks to recommended on-line movies and tutorials.

This guide is without doubt one of the superb reference ebook in he area (remote sensing). Good photos, nice overview of the sector of research, and it covers most of the parts of the science behind to the applications. Despite the fact that it's not the ebook you need for a precise and a full study of a subject particularly, it's really value it to have it in your library.

I purchased it used, saving an appreciable sum of money, and nonetheless, the guide is wonderful. No scratch, torn web page nor highlight (which I hate so much).
I strongly recommend both this ebook and the used part of Amazon. I've by no means been disenchanted (learn the description and purpose for acceptable and up contemplating high quality).

This guide covers all of the basics in addition to some advanced material so I'd highly recommend it for any pupil serious about remote sensing. The diagrams/pics have been very helpful and it was an incredible complement to my lecture.
