Author Description

High Spatial Resolution Data Including Those From Satellite, Manned Aircraft, And Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (uav) Platforms Provide A Novel Data Source For Addressing Environmental Questions With An Unprecedented Level Of Detail. To Effectively Utilize Information Contained In High Spatial Resolution Imagery, Some Key Questions Must Be Addressed, Including: (1) What Are The Challenges Of Using New Sensors And New Platforms? (2) What Are The Cutting-edge Methods For Fine-level Information Extraction From High Spatial Resolution Images? And (3) How Can High Spatial Resolution Data Improve The Quantification And Characterization Of Physical-environmental Or Human Patterns And Processes? The Chapters In This Book Provide A Snapshot Of Cutting-edge High Spatial Resolution Remote Sensing Image Collection, Preprocessing, Processing, And Applications. This Book Intents To Provide A Useful Benchmark For The High Spatial Resolution Remote Sensing Community And Inspire More Studies That Would Address Important Scientific And Technical Challenges In Use Of High Spatial Remote Sensing -- From The Publisher.
