Description
Summary:"Preface The first edition of Urban Remote Sensing: Monitoring, Synthesis and Modeling in the Urban Environment published in 2011was primarily an outcome of my decade-long efforts promoting urban remote sensing research through organizing thematic paper sessions at the annual meetings of American Association of Geographers (AAG). It is the first book written with a broad vision of urban remote sensing that draws upon multiple disciplines and the integration of remote sensing with relevant geospatial data and technologies. The book covered a variety of topics extending beyond urban feature extraction and into socioeconomic and environmental analyses and predictive modeling of urbanization. It contrasts considerably in such a treatment with other dedicated books on urban remote sensing, which are largely restricted on urban feature extraction and land use interpretation. In addition, the book has been translated into Chinese and was published by China's Higher Education Press in 2014"--
