The book begins with several chapters on the basic concepts and underlying principles of remote sensing images. It introduces spectral radiometry concepts, such as radiance, irradiance, flux, and blackbody radiation; covers imaging spectrometers, examining spectral range, full width half maximum (FWHM), resolution, sampling, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and multispectral and hyperspectral sensor systems; and addresses atmospheric interactions. Hyperspectral remote sensing is one the technologies that can help with reliable detection and identification. The book then discusses information extraction
About the Author Midwest Research Institute, Palm Bay, Florida, USA Titusville, Florida, USA Gainesville, Florida, USA
"Nice introduction, but very superficial" according to Martin Schneebeli. This slim volume covers a wide range of the topics relevant to hyperspectral remote sensing. However, the level is superficial, and more useful to managers than to researchers or graduate students. If you are interested just to know what hyperspectral imaging is, then this book may be fine. Otherwise, it is not worth the money.. Chris B. said Five Stars. Great product and great company fast shipping.
