“I am building a new course and the instructor resources are wonderful. I can see how much work has gone into this textbook and appreciate all the updates.” — Aggeliki Barberopoulou, Tufts University
“It looks and reads like a book both undergraduate and graduate students majoring in Earth Remote Sensing would benefit from using in their class.” — Charles Bostater, Florida Institute of Technology
“The authors embarked on a substantial and successful effort to cover all the developments in the science, technology, and art of remote sensing that happened in the last quarter-century. Thus, the book has six new chapters, and more than half of its 500 figures and color plates are new. A few examples of current topics of remote sensing applications incorporated in this work are the monitoring of the effects of climate change, the processing of sensor data from unmanned aerial systems, and the emergence of new lidar technologies.” — Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing
“I like the focus on geological image interpretation applications, and that the book is up to date.” — Noah P. Snyder, Boston College
“As far as I know, this is the only remote sensing textbook on the market offering comprehensive coverage of both classic topics and emergent techniques such as drones, lidar, and others. The accompanying website allows instructors to access all figures, color plates, and a well-designed lab manual (data and answers). The website also provides a variety of sample remote sensor data that could be used for students’ class projects (for an intermediate or advanced course).” — Xiaojun Yang, Florida State University
