Remote Sensing and GIS in Peri-Urban Research: Perspectives on Global Change, Sustainability and Resilience: Modern Cartography Series, cartea 11

Editat de Mehebub Sahana
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 sep 2024
Remote Sensing and GIS in Peri-Urban Research: Perspectives on Global Change, Sustainability and Resilience, Eleventh Edition provides the most recent methods and techniques, incorporating geoinformatics-based practices to map, evaluate, and model urban landscape attributes and changes. The book provides theory, methodology, and future perspectives of remote sensing and GIS techniques applied to peri-urban modelling, analysis and sustainability through the use of spatio-temporal geospatial datasets. It also includes case studies of real-world data sets, with applicable algorithms, techniques and methods for study. This will be a useful reference for researchers and academics in remote sensing, GIS, and spatial analysis, and environmental or urban scientists wanting to implement remote sensing technologies in their research.


  • Outlines applications of geospatial technologies for visualization of land use dynamics including spatial information about population distributions, built-up areas and degree of urbanization based on global and local datasets
  • Provides methodology for identification of peri-urban interfaces using techniques to identify peri-urban space and dynamics using remote sensing and GIS techniques
  • Includes worldwide case studies by experts from different countries increasing the understanding of the nature of global peri-urbanization and growth
