Abstract/Notes	Remote sensing ang geographic information systems (GIS) are inherently linked technologies. Together, they form a powerful tool to measure, map, monitor, and model resources and environmental data for bith scientific and commercial applications. This book brings together work by leaders in the field to address improved techniques, applications, and research integrates remote sensing and GIS. Among the topics covered are image rectification, change detection, visualitation, computer modelling, local land use planning, requirements of GIS in global change research, and a look at what the future could hold. Remote sensing and GIS play a key role in studies of water resources, air quality, topography, land cover, and population location and dynamics, and specialist working in these areas at the local, regional, and global levels will find this book a valuable and up-to-date information source
