Advanced Environmental Monitoring with Remote Sensing Time Series Data and R, Paperback / softback Book

Advanced Environmental Monitoring with Remote Sensing Time Series Data and R Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This book provides a step-by-step guide on how to use various publicly available remotely sensed time series data sources for environmental monitoring and assessment.

Readers will learn how to extract valuable information on global changes from a 20-year collection of ready-to-use remotely sensed data through the free open statistical software R and its geographic data analysis and modeling tools.

The case studies are from the Mediterranean region—a designated hot spot regarding climate change effects.

Each chapter is dedicated to specific remote sensing products chosen for their spatial resolution.

The methods used are adapted from large-scale to smaller-scale problems for different land cover areas. Features Includes real-world applications of environmental remotely sensed data Analyzes the advantages and restrictions of each data source Focuses on a wide spectrum of applications, such as hydrology, vegetation changes, land surface temperature, fire detection, and impacts Includes R computer codes with explanatory comments and all applications use only freely available remotely sensed data Presents a step-by-step processing through open source GIS and statistical analysis software Advanced Environmental Monitoring with Remote Sensing Time Series Data and R describes and provides details on recent advances concerning publicly available remotely sensed time series data in environmental monitoring and assessment.

This book is a must-have practical guide for environmental researchers, professionals, and students.
