About this title

Synopsis

This is a unique interactive textbook/CD-ROM package, offering students step-by-step, practical hands-on experience of digital image processing. The textbook explains how to process digital images to maximise information output and discusses a range of environmental monitoring techniques. A range of case studies are explored, drawn from a variety of disciplines and from across the world.. The final section of the book presents a practical manual of image processing instruction and detailed practical exercises to support the unique CD-ROM which accompanies this textbook.
The CD-ROM contains fully functioning image processing software - a limited edition of DRAGON software developed specifically for readers of Introductory Remote Sensing - and over 70 satellite digital datasets for 9 scenes across America, Ireland, China, Sudan, Peru, Western Europe and the UK.
