Bücher der Reihe Remote Sensing and Digital Image Processing

This book investigates the applicability of satellite radar interferometry (InSAR) for deformation monitoring. The presented methodologies are demonstrated in an integrated way for the entire northern part of the Netherlands and a part of Germany.

This book offers detailed discussion of dielectric measurement and behaviour of wet soil, from theoretical and experiment points of view. The book is written primarily with the requirements of interdisciplinary researchers in agriculture and soil science in mind.

This volume is a synthesis of the NASA funded work under the Land-Cover and Land-Use Change Program. Hundreds of scientists have worked for the past eight years to understand one of the most important forces that is changing our planet-human impacts on land cover, that is land use. Its contributions span the natural and the social sciences, and apply state-of-the-art techniques for understanding the earth: satellite remote sensing, geographic information systems, modeling, and advanced computing. It brings together detailed case studies, regional analyses, and globally scaled mapping efforts. This is the most organized effort made to understand the dominant force that has been responsible for changing the Earth¿s biosphere.Audience: This publication will be of interest to students, scientists, and policy makers.

A significant step forward in the world of earth observation was made with the development of imaging spectrometry.

To make an optimal choice between these techniques it is important to have a uniform and quantitative approach for describing the errors and how these errors propagate to the estimated parameters.

This volume is devoted to the Persistent Scatterer Technique, the latest development in radar interferometric data processing.
