Remote Sensing

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Resource
Review: Probably one of the best books on image processing i have seen. I recommend this to all undergraduate and graduate students taking up Remote Sensing and Image Processing. Very comprehensive!

Summary: An essential reference for all spatial data scientists
Review: This book (known simply as "The Schowengerdt Text" in our lab) is one of the most necessary books for anyone interested in advanced remote sensing or photogrammetric analysis. Though peppered with equations, the majority of the text is written clearly. What this tome has that others severly skimp on, is the abundance of diagrams and actual image/data examples from selected sensors. The advanced chapters covering spatial transforms, spectral transforms, and sensor models were particularly good. This was a 5-star book when released, but today it grades out at a solid "4." Saying that, a new edition with updated sensors (and summaries of the caveats/benefits/uses of each) and more color plates would be greatly welcome. If your going to nit-pick about anything with this book, the index could have been a little more comprehensive.
