Publisher's Synopsis
"Remote Sensing Geology" offers a full treatment of the subject by discussing remote sensing methods and applying them to geo-exploration. The reader will find a range of information on: various aspects of geological remote sensing, ranging from laboratory spectra of minerals and rocks and ground truth, to aerial and space-borne remote sensing; the integration of photogeology into remote sensing; remote sensing as a tool of geo-exploration; and a range of geoscientific applications of remote sensing, from meso- to global scale. The material is introduced at a basic level, intended to serve students as an introductory text on remote sensing. The main part of the book is also intended to be of value to active researchers.;This textbook on geology, remote sensing and photo-interpretation is intended for graduate students, teachers, researchers and consultants.
