Remote Sensing and GIS is specifically designed to serve as a textbook for undergraduate students of geoinformatics/geomatics engineering, survey engineering, civil engineering, geotechnical engineering, and environmental engineering. It would also prove useful to students of geography, geophysics, earth resources management, environmental management, and disaster management. It provides a thorough understanding of the basic principles and techniques of remote sensing, geographic information systems, and their applications. PART 1: Remote Sensing and Image Analysis 1.
