Volume VI of the Remote Sensing Handbook, Second Edition, is focused on the use of remote sensing in the assessment and monitoring of droughts, dry lands, biomass burning, disasters such as volcanoes and fires, and urban studies and nightlights. It discusses land degradation assessment and monitoring, greenhouse gas emissions, and pollution from nightlights in megacities. Chapters include remote sensing of agricultural droughts, including US drought monitoring, dryland studies, coal fires, biomass burning and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, volcanoes, humanitarian disasters, smart cities, and night lights mapping. This thoroughly revised and updated volume draws on the expertise of a diverse array of leading international authorities in remote sensing and provides an essential resource for researchers at all levels interested in using remote sensing. It integrates discussions of remote sensing principles, data, methods, development, applications, and scientific and social context.

FEATURES

Recenzijas

The chapters in Remote Sensing Handbook are written by leading remote sensing scientists of the world and ably edited by Prasad S. Thenkabail, Senior Scientist, at U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in Flagstaff, Arizona. The importance and the value of the Remote Sensing Handbook is clearly demonstrated by the need for a second edition. The Remote Sensing Handbook (First Edition, Volumes I-III) was published in 2014 and now after 10 years Remote Sensing Handbook, Second Edition, (Volumes I-VI) with 91 Chapters and nearly 3500 pages will be published. It is certainly monumental work in remote sensing science and for this I want to compliment Dr. Prasad Thenkabail. Remote sensing is now important to a large number of scientific disciplines beyond our community, and I recommend the Remote Sensing Handbook, Second Edition, Six Volume Set, to not only remote sensers but to the entire scientific community.

It is not often that a Remote Sensing Handbook containing rich and diverse contributions from some of the best researchers worldwide is compiled and published. So please take note that The Remote Sensing Handbook, Second Edition, edited by Dr Prasad S. Thenkabail has landed. This book contains everything you need to know to become a remote sensing scientist. The principles, the different wavelengths, the considerations to take into account for cloud processing, calibration and validation considerations and all the domain application areas you can possibly consider; some of which I was not even aware of, are all in there. Chapters of the book delve into topics such as space law and data for policy applications. Thank you to the authors for their contributions and commitment to ensure that this book becomes a very useful resource for researchers and students as the subject of Remote Sensing moves ahead with great pace into the 2nd quarter of the 21st Century.

This six-volume, Second Edition of the Remote Sensing Handbook provides a collection of chapters covering the gamut of remote sensing topics and applications. The chapters are written by many well-known members of the international remote sensing community, offering diverse perspectives on this rapidly developing discipline. The Handbook will be useful for students and practitioners alike. This compilation is a major undertaking and I congratulate Dr. Prasad Thenkabail on its completion.

Prof. Chris Justice, University of Maryland College Park, USA

Dr. Thenkabail and his colleagues do a brilliant job of condensing nearly 60 years of research and developments in remote sensing into a six-volume compendium. Interested in remote sensing, invest in this handbook!

Dr. Ramakrishna Nemani, Senior Earth scientist with the Advanced Supercomputing division at NASA Ames Research Center (retired), and Chief Developed of NASA Earth Exchange (NEX) platform

The second edition of the Remote Sensing Handbook is an impressive collection of 91 chapters in 6 volumes written by some of the best known and most active remote sensing scientists of our time. It is a vast expansion from its first edition of 3 volumes in 2015 and comprehensively covers all the major fields of remote sensing science, including sensors, image processing, information retrieval and a wide range of applications to ecology, agriculture, forestry, urban environment, water resources, climate change, etc. It allows students, scientists, professionals and practitioners to catch up with the rapid development in remote sensing technology, methodology and applications over the past decade. Dr. Prasad S. Thenkabail, a world-renowned remote sensing scientist, is highly commended for undertaking the daunting task of formulating and editing this large collection as the sole editor-in-chief. His 40-year experience in various remote sensing fields makes him well suited for this task.
