Remote Sensing and Image Interpretation
Remote Sensing and Image Interpretation presents the principles on which remote sensing is used, and explores the interplay between remote sensing and GIS. It describes the tools of photography, airphoto interpretation processes, and principles of acquiring and interpreting data collected by non-photographic sensors. Extensively illustrated, this invaluable reference provides a balance between classical visual image interpretation and digital image processing techniques.

An Introduction to Satellite Image Interpretation
Prepared in association with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), this extensively illustrated text and accompanying CD-ROM offer a thorough overview of the use of satellite technology in Earth and planetary science, weather forecasting, and environmental research. The book covers the foundations of remote sensing, the types of satellites, and the basics of satellite image interpretation. Other topics include geographical, oceanographical applications, and atmospheric science applications of satellite imagery. With a fully indexed glossary, this well-written and thoughtfully presented text is ideal for science teachers, undergraduate and graduate students, professionals working in the field of operational meteorology, and others interested in knowing more about interpreting satellite imagery. The accompanying CD-ROM of satellite images enables the user to zoom in on many images (some of which appear in color), use overlays to identify important elements in the satellite image, and keep a notes file.
