Introduction to remote sensing. Book reviews Rasher and Weaver includes a folder with 15 1 photographs and exercises to reinforce the principles. Hands-on experience is Download PDF. Recommend Documents. Introduction to environmental remote sensing. Introduction to the physics and techniques of remote sensing. Remote sensing. Remote Sensing. Benefits to world agriculture through remote sensing.
Contribution of Remote Sensing to Modelling. Remote sensing applications to hydrological modeling. Hands-on experience is also important for learning interpretation of digital data via computer and GIS techniques. Remote sensing and image interpretation have obvious applications for spatial analyses in epidemiology. Although this text was not tailored to a biomedical audience, it can serve either as a basic introduction to the techniques or as a comprehensive reference for the wellinformed.
To embed these techniques within research design, however, necessitates further training or cooperation with a remote sensing professional in a team approach. Arthur P. Cracknell and Ladson W. Remote sensing is a comprehensive term which encompasses the process of data acquisition, the complex technology for reception and transmission, and subsequent image processing and storage methodologies.
Principles from physics, engineering and mathematics are applied to interpret raw data. Because of the complexity of the field, many of the available introductory texts to remote sensing and image interpretation e.
Avery and Berlin, ; Lillesand and Kiefer, ; and the more technical Richards, are both extensive and introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download. Because the applications of remote sensing to the biomedical sciences have been recognized relatively recently, none of the available texts are geared to the veterinary or public health community. All include much information of limited relevance to those oriented to potential applications in veterinary medicine. Consequently, a new short introductory text in a relatively inexpensive paperback format is a welcome addition.
This book includes some very useful sections, and several original and helpful appendices. However, the emphasis is on remote sensing of water areas and issues such as atmospheric corrections, and the technologies, interpretation and applications most relevant to oceanographers, with examples that are not directly relevant to most readers of this journal. Naturally, we in the biomedical community cannot yet expect to be an important target audience of a short introductory book.
In fact, veterinary and human medicine are not included in the list of uses of remote sensing in Chapter 1, introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download. But, the unique emphasis of this book on non-terrestrial systems and the assumption of a strong background in the physical sciences including rather advanced mathematics may make this book less accessible than some other introductory texts. The quality of the writing is uneven between chapters, and not always well-organized.
At points, the book suffers from repetitions and some figures provide little information or are difficult to understand, introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download. Throughout the book, information applicable to biomedical research is often embedded in material that most will find of limited use.
However, as veterinary applications are still very exploratory, even material that appears irrelevant may become important in the future. The introduction provides some good basic information, but overall is either very general, or highly specific on issues which are not pertinent to the biomedical community. Some more basic information on concepts essential to understanding of remote sensing e.
The usefulness of the methods chapters is limited by the divergence of needs of oceanographers from the interests of veterinary epidemiologists. Where these are coincident, as in the chapter on data reception, archiving and distribution, the book provides a fine overview of data management by remote sensing systems.
In others, information on topics such as multi-spectral scanners and images, correction for atmospheric effects and image enhancement methods is valuable, but presented in a context emphasizing aspects with limited biomedical applicability. This is not a shortcoming of the text, rather it is a sign of the mismatch of needs between disparate disciplines using the same technology. For those concerned with water-associated parasitic diseases, the chapters on non-satellite sources of remotely sensed data will yield information on lasers, radar and microwave technologies.
These techniques are emerging as useful applications in studies of fresh and saltwater habitats of mosquito vectors and snail hosts of parasites of veterinary importance, introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download. The final chapter, applications of remotely sensed data, provides an opportunity for exploring the power of remote sensing through illustrative examples.
This introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download includes a good introduction and sections on applications to the atmosphere and climatology. The section on geology provides information on soil type which is important, for example, in studies of mosquitos and nematode parasites of livestock.
However, the section on the biosphere, although well-written, is much too short and the emphasis is on agricultural crops. The rest of the chapter is of little relevance to most of us, although the section on the environment does include the only mention of a introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download issue in this book, namely the application of thermal images to conduct cattle censuses in Texas through heat sensing and to find bison dead from anthrax in the Northwest Territories of Canada.
The book does include some very useful appendices, although American texts and data sources are not well represented. Appendix I is a list of general text books; Appendix II provides a list of sources of remotely sensed data by country; Appendix III is a compilation of abbreviations and acronyms used in the field of remote sensing. I have found myself using Appendix III several times since receiving this book it is a necessary reference for a field abound with acronyms and abbreviations, that are often used without explanation.
The index for the book is complete and accurate. Unfortunately, much of the material in introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download book is already dated. Two satellite systems with the most important applications to biomedical sciences U. Book reviews Recent biomedical applications of satellite systems have been largely based on the TM images.
This is also reflected in the reference list with only five references dated later than With so many developments in the field taking place in the last 10 years, this lack of recent references is surprising. In comparison, Avery and Berlin and, particularly Lillesand and Kieferhave extensive discussions of the Landsat and SPOT satellite systems and their applications, which biomedical researchers are most likely to use, other than advanced very high resolution radiometer AVHRR multispectral scanner.
They also organize material in a more generic and easily accessible manner. These texts also provide a better, more comprehendible and cross-disciplinary approach to the applications of specific data acquisition, correction and management methods. Overall, although this book includes several valuable sections and items, the emphasis on water, introduction to remote sensing campbell pdf free download, the assumption of a strong background in the physical sciences, and the lack of up-to-date information prevent me from recommending it as an introductory text for veterinarians and other biomedical professionals.
Other introductory texts are better organized and allow readers to extract relevant information more readily. In particular, the new edition of Lillesand and Kiefer includes chapters and sections which the novice user of remote sensing techniques with a limited background in the physical sciences will find readily accessible.
For many readers, shorter reviews, such as the chapter by Quattrochi and Pelletier in Turner and Gardner may prove to be a sufficient introduction until the need for a more extensive background arises.
