Introduction to Remote Sensing

"This third edition of Campbell's excellent book provides college students and others with a timely overview of the latest innovations in the rapidly changing field of remote sensing.Students gain a solid understanding of current applications as well as key principles to help them analyze future developments. Whether in biology, geography, geology, land use, or natural resource management, this text is designed to meet a broad, multidisciplinary range of student backgrounds and interests." M. Duane Nellis, West Virginia University "A rigorous and inviting text. Its outstanding features include instructive illustrations, color graphics, and review questions. The core knowledge of the field is covered with a complementary blend of theory, analysis, and applications. Augmenting the solid foundation laid out in previous editions, the third edition contains updated content on hyperspectral sensing, satellite platforms and sensors, and data sources. Several chapters on applications provide an excellent means to truly appreciate the breadth and utility of remote sensing. This book is an excellent, comprehensive resource for those teaching, learning, or trying to keep up with changes in the field." Thomas R. Allen, Old Dominion University "Introduction to Remote Sensing, Third Edition, continues to be one of the most complete texts available on remote sensing.Suitable not only for undergraduates or graduates in the natural and social sciences, but also for those in engineering and related fields."
