Integrating Scale in Remote Sensing and GIS

This book is the most comprehensive documentation of the scientific and methodological advances that have taken place in integrating scale in remote sensing and GIS. It presents new developments in the overall concept of scale within the purview of the "science of scale" for multispatial, multitemporal, and multispectral data, including spatial modeling. It discusses future trends in the integration of remote sensing and GIS in relation to new Earth observation remote sensing platforms and instruments to be launched in the near future.
