Summary

Remote Sensing and Image Interpretation, 7th Edition is designed to be primarily used in two ways: as a textbook in the introductory courses in remote sensing and image interpretation, and as a reference for the burgeoning number of practitioners who use geospatial information and analysis in their work. Because of the wide range of academic and professional settings in which this book might be used, we have made the discussion “discipline neutral.” In short, anyone involved in geospatial data acquisition and analysis should find this book to be a valuable text and reference.

Author Biography

Dr. Thomas Lillesand is a professor of engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has received the Alan Gordon Memorial Award from American Society of Photogrammetry for significant achievements in remote sensing and photographic interpretation as well as the Earle J. Fennell Award from the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping. He is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers and is on the academic board for the John C. Stennis Space Center. Dr. Lillesand has published over 125 works on remote sensing and his research interests include geographical information systems, natural resource management, and environmental monitoring.
