Geographical Information Science: Case Studies in Earth and Environmental Monitoring provides detailed remote sensing and GIS methods and algorithms and technology comparisons, focusing on a wide range of environmental applications. The geoinformation technologies are demonstrated through templated case studies detailing real world use of the techniques and clarifying methods, tools, and practical solutions to environmental mapping and monitoring. The book utilizes remote sensing and geospatial data from the most recently launched satellites and applies the latest geospatial data approaches and analysis software tools (both commercial and open source).

This book is a comprehensive reference for researchers, academics and technicians in the fields of geospatial science & technology, remote sensing, and environmental science; or those processing and analyzing geospatial data for monitoring and modelling.

Focuses on global, templated case studies of GIS applications to environmental monitoring
Includes methodologies allowing readers to recreate techniques and models and workflows that can be used in their own work
Covers a plethora of topics in applied geosciences, providing environmental and geographical applications of practical interest
