From the reviews: "The authors write that their aims were the proposal of a novel automated end-to-end system to analyze multispectral satellite images and to emphasize how many research problems in remote sensing applications are waiting to be solved by the computer vision community. Well, the book satisfies both these goals. ... it represents a good reference book, even a milestone, for teaching multispectral image understanding to students and/or young researchers."
