Synopsis

Remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have become indispensable tools for understanding our planet's complex systems and addressing a wide range of environmental, social, and economic challenges. With several environmental and social factors coming to a head, it is important that our society utilizes every tool at its disposal in order to identify these issues and make comprehensive action plans in order to avoid negative social and environmental consequences. Applying Remote Sensing and GIS for Spatial Analysis and Decision-Making offers a comprehensive exploration of the applications of remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and emerging technologies in spatial analysis and decision-making across various domains. The book explores fundamental principles, methodologies, and advanced techniques pertinent to remote sensing and GIS, while also discussing the integration of emerging technologies such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), hyperspectral imaging, LiDAR, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI). Covering topics such as climate change modeling, land resources, and spatial data analysis, this book is an excellent resource for researchers and academicians, urban planners, practitioners, professionals, policy makers, postgraduate students and educators, and more.
