Remote Sensing of Geomorphology, Volume 23, discusses the new range of remote-sensing techniques (lidar, structure from motion photogrammetry, advanced satellite platforms) that has led to a dramatic increase in terrain information, and as such provided new opportunities for a better understanding of surface morphology and related Earth surface processes. As several papers have been published (including paper reviews and special issues) on this topic, this book summarizes the major advances in remote sensing techniques for the analysis of Earth surface morphology and processes, also highlighting future challenges. Useful for MSc and PhD students, this book is also ideal for any scientists that want to have a single volume guideline to help them develop new ideas. In addition, technicians and private and public sectors working on remote sensing will find the information useful to their initiatives.
- Provides a useful guideline for MSc and PhD students, scientists, technicians, and land planners on the use of remote sensing in geomorphology
- Includes applications on specific case studies that highlight issues and benefits of one technique compared to others
- Presents future trends in remote sensing and geomorphology
"Overall, this collection of articles is a commendable addition to the Developments in Earth Surface Processes book series. Main highlights of the book which may secure a place for it in the libraries of the university, research institutes as well as commercial Brms include: (i) an apt balance of basics and fundamentals of the ace technologies with elaborate case studies providing in-depth functional details, suggestions and guidelines for their trouble-free implementation; (ii) the book emphatically showcases the application, usability and significance of high-resolution topography in various geomorphological domains; (iii) it suitably covers all the major and significant areas of geomorphology in-vogue through the complied chapters; (iv) the careful inclusion of chapters with thorough reviews and those with dedicated applications, is noteworthy; (v) lastly, the lucid yet eAective style of writing followed throughout, together with justiBed, good quality and exclusive illustrations further enhance the understanding of concepts. In a nutshell, I deBne this compilation as a Bne mix of rich and updated reference source with adequate fundamental details which would beneBt a scholar and a seasoned researcher alike." --J.
