Advanced Algorithms for Mineral and Hydrocarbon Exploration Using Synthetic Aperture Radar

Advanced Algorithms for Mineral and Hydrocarbon Exploration Using Synthetic Aperture Radar is a research- and practically-based reference that bridges the gap between the remote sensing industry and the mineral and hydrocarbon exploration industry. In this context, the book explains how to commercialize the applications of synthetic aperture radar and quantum interferometry synthetic aperture radar (QInSAR) for mineral and hydrocarbon exploration. This multidisciplinary reference is useful for oil and gas companies, the mining industry, geoscientists, and coastal and petroleum engineers.

• Presents both theoretical and practical applications of various types of remote sensing for hydrocarbon and mineral exploration
• Covers specific problems for exploration professionals and provides applications for solving each problem
• Includes more than 100 images and figures to help explain the concepts and applications described in the book
