About The Author

Emilio Chuvieco

Fundamentals of Satellite Remote Sensing: An Environmental Approach, 2nd Edition (PDF) is a definitive guide to remote sensing systems focusing on satellite-based remote sensing tools and space-based Earth observation (EO) methods. It presents the advantages of using remote sensing data for studying and monitoring the planet, and emphasizes concepts that best use satellite data.

The ebook begins with an introduction to the fundamental processes that ensure the acquisition of space-borne imagery and provides an overview of the main satellite observation systems. It then describes visual and digital image analysis, highlights various interpretation techniques, and outlines their applications to science and management. The latter part of the ebook covers the integration of remote sensing with GIS for environmental analysis.

Based on the first English version published in 2010, this latest edition has been written to reflect a global audience, factors in international debates, legal issues surrounding EO, and future developments and trends.

New in the Second Edition:

  • Offers an analysis of image spatial properties
  • Includes additional illustrations now in full color
  • Presents material on visual analysis, time series analysis, and data fusion
  • Updates information on recent satellite missions (Sentinel-2, Landsat-8, hyperspectral and hyperspatial programs)
  • Provides examples of EO data that cover different environmental problems, with particular relevance to global observation
  • Uses sample images acquired from different ecosystems at different spatial resolutions to illustrate different interpretation techniques
  • Covers near-ground missions (including UAV) and ground sensors (cameras, LIDAR, spectro-radiometers, etc.) to support EO analysis
  • Fundamentals of Satellite Remote Sensing, 2nd Edition, details the tools that provide global, recurrent, and comprehensive views of the processes affecting the Earth and is a must-have for researchers, academics, students, and professionals involved in the field of environmental science.
