Book excerpt: Remote Sensing Technology In India Started In The 1960S. Space Technology Was Developed During The 1970S And 1980S To Use Satellites And Sensors In The Areas Of Communication To Exploit Meteorological And Ground Resources. Like Some Other Developing Countries, India Could Bypass The Intermediate Technology Stage And Leapfrog Into The High Technology Area.India S First Satellite In Irs Series Was Irs-1A, Launched In March 1988 By A Russian Vostok Launch Vehicle. Our Space Technology Has Attained Momentum And Made Tremendous Achievements By Launching The Oceansat-1 For Ocean Resources Monitoring; Resourcesat-1 For Agricultural Applications; And Cartosat-1 With A High Resolution Panchromatic Camera For Cartographic Applications. In India, The Remote Sensing Technology Along With Geographic Information System (Gis) Is Widely Being Used For More Than Two Decades For Inventorying, Mapping And Monitoring Of Earth Resources, And For Mitigation And Management Of Natural Disasters. In Days To Come It Will Become The Most Powerful Tool For Management And Distribution Of Information For Various Purposes.This Book Is Solely Written To Meet The Requirements Of Undergraduate Courses In B.E. (Civil Engineering), B.Tech (Geoinformatics), The Postgraduate Courses And M.Tech In Remote Sensing, Postgraduate Diploma In Remote Sensing And Gis, And M.E (Geoinformatics) Of Various Universities And Institutions. Topics Are Covered With Adequate Tables And Illustrations Essential To An Introductory Text. The Book Offers Key Concepts With The Use Of Simple And Limited Mathematics. Digital Image Processing, Which Forms The Backbone Of The Book, Is Dealt With Special Care. The Book Explains Fundamental Basis Of Gis Technology, Spatial Data Modeling, Attributes Data Management, Gis Data Analysis And Modeling. It Will Also Serve As An Ideal Reference Book For Researchers In This Field And Practical Users Of This Technology.

Book Synopsis Integration of GIS and Remote Sensing by : Victor Mesev
Download or read book Integration of GIS and Remote Sensing written by Victor Mesev. This book was released on 2007-12-17. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age of unprecedented proliferation of data from disparate sources the urgency is to create efficient methodologies that can optimise data combinations and at the same time solve increasingly complex application problems. Integration of GIS and Remote Sensing explores the tremendous potential that lies along the interface between GIS and remote sensing for activating interoperable databases and instigating information interchange. It concentrates on the rigorous and meticulous aspects of analytical data matching and thematic compatibility - the true roots of all branches of GIS/remote sensing applications. However closer harmonization is tempered by numerous technical and institutional issues, including scale incompatibility, measurement disparities, and the inescapable notion that data from GIS and remote sensing essentially represent diametrically opposing conceptual views of reality. The first part of the book defines and characterises GIS and remote sensing and presents the reader with an awareness of the many scale, taxonomical and analytical problems when attempting integration. The second part of the book moves on to demonstrate the benefits and costs of integration across a number of human and environmental applications. This book is an invaluable reference for students and professionals dealing not only with GIS and remote sensing, but also computer science, civil engineering, environmental science and urban planning within the academic, governmental and commercial/business sectors.

Book Synopsis Geoinformation by : Gottfried Konecny
Download or read book Geoinformation written by Gottfried Konecny. This book was released on 2002-10-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveying and mapping has recently undergone a transition: from discipline-oriented technologies, such as geodesy, surveying, photogrammetry and cartography, to the methodology-oriented integrated discipline of geoinformatics based on GPS positioning, remote sensing, digital photography and GIS for data manipulation and data output. This book presents the required basic background for remote sensing, digital photogrammetry and GIS in the new geoinformatics concept in which the different methodologies must be combined. For remote sensing, the basic fundamentals are the properties of electromagnetic radiation and their interaction with matter. This radiation is received by sensors and platforms in analogue or digital form, and is subject to image processing. In photogrammetry, the stereo-concept is used for the location of information in 3D. With the advent of high-resolution satellite systems in stereo, the theory of analytical photogrammetry restituting 2-D image information into 3D is of increasing importance, merging the remote sensing approach with that of photogrammetry. The result of the restitution is a direct input into geographical information systems in vector or in raster form. The fundamentals of these are described in detail, with an emphasis on global, regional and local applications. For data integration, a short introduction into the GPS Satellite positioning system is added. This textbook will appeal to a wide range of readers, from advanced undergraduates to all professionals in the growing field of geoinformation.
