Download Fluvial Remote Sensing for Science and Management (Advancing by Patrice Carbonneau,Hervé Piégay PDF

By Patrice Carbonneau,Hervé Piégay

This ebook bargains a finished evaluation of growth within the normal zone of fluvial distant sensing with a selected specialise in its capability contribution to river administration. The e-book highlights various difficult concerns via contemplating quite a number spatial and temporal scales with views from numerous disciplines. The publication starts off with an summary of the technical growth resulting in new administration functions for various box contexts and spatial scales. issues comprise color imagery, multi-spectral and hyper-spectral imagery, video, photogrammetry and LiDAR. The booklet then discusses administration purposes corresponding to designated, community scale, making plans, land-use swap modelling at catchment scales, characterisation of channel reaches (riparian plants, geomorphic positive factors) in either spatial and temporal dimensions, fish habitat evaluation, circulate size, tracking river recovery and upkeep and, the appraisal of human perceptions of riverscapes.

Key Features:
• a particular specialise in administration functions in a interval of accelerating calls for on managers to represent river positive factors and their evolution at varied spatial scales
• An integration throughout all scales of images with a transparent dialogue of either flooring established and airborne images
• contains a wide-range of environmental problems
• assurance of state-of-the-art technology
• Contributions from prime researchers within the field
