Advances in Remote Sensing Technologies for Environmental Monitoring

Remote sensing technologies, such as satellite imagery and aerial surveys, provide valuable data for monitoring and assessing the Earth's environment. These technologies enable us to detect changes in land cover, monitor pollution levels, and track the impact of natural disasters, allowing for informed decision-making in environmental management and resource conservation. This book explores the cutting-edge technologies used to monitor and assess the Earth's environment from a remote perspective. It also discusses the latest advancements in remote sensing techniques, including satellite imagery and aerial surveys, enabling researchers and environmentalists to gather critical data for environmental monitoring and management.
