For nearly three decades there has been a phenomenal growth in the field of Remote Sensing. The second edition of this widely acclaimed book has been fully revised and updated. The reader will find a wide range of information on various aspects of geological remote sensing, ranging from laboratory spectra of minerals and rocks, ground truth, to aerial and space-borne remote sensing. This volume describes the integration of photogeology into remote sensing as well as how remote sensing is used as a tool of geo-exploration. It also covers a wide spectrum of geoscientific applications of remote sensing ranging from meso- to global scale. The subject matter is presented at a basic level, serving students as an introductory text on remote sensing. The main part of the book will also be of great value to active researchers.

There has been phenomenal growth in the field of remote sensing over the last two to three decades. It has been applied in the fields of geology, mineral exploration, forestry, agriculture, hydrology, soils, land use etc. - that is, in all pursuits of sciences dealing with the features, processes, and phenomena operating at the earth's surface. The status of geological remote sensing has rapidly advanced and the scientific literature is scattered. The aim of the present book is to systematically discuss the specific requirements of geological remote sensing, to summarize the techniques of remote sensing data collection and interpretation, and to integrate the technique into geoexploration. The main conceptual features of the book are: - To combine various aspects of geological remote sensing, ranging from the laboratory spectra of minerals and rocks to aerial and space-borne remote sensmg. - To integrate photogeology into remote sensing. - To promote remote sensing as a tool in integrated geoexploration. - To elucidate the wide-spectrum geoscientific applications of remote sensing, ranging from meso- to global scale. The book has been written to satisfy the needs of mainly graduate students and active research workers interested in applied earth sciences. It is primarily concept -oriented rather than system- or module-oriented.

A guide to image interpretation, this book contains detailed color plates and tables that compare satellite imaging systems, list remote sensing web sites, and detail photointerpretation equipment. It includes case histories of the search for petroleum and mineral deposits and examines engineering uses of remote sensing. The volume comprises four sections: project initiation; exploration techniques; exploitation and engineering remote sensing; and environmental concerns. They combine to provide readers with a solid foundation of what image interpretation is and enables them to recognize features of interest and effectively use imagery in projects for the petroleum, mining, or groundwater industries.

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 182. The earliest people in the Front Range area left scant record. During the Pleistocene, the first migrations of Oriental people crossed the Bering land bridge and some eventually moved into Colorado. Cliff-dwelling Pueblo cultures developed in southwestern Colorado about 2000 years ago, with more nomadic tribes like the Ute and Apache arriving in Colorado about 700 years ago (Brown, 1985). By the middle of the eighteenth century, the Pawnee had firm control of the South Platte River, with the Comanches to the south. Decimated by smallpox, the Pawnees moved northeast, and the dominant plains tribes became the Cheyenne and Arapahoe, who hunted from the Arkansas River to the North Platte River. Several tribes of Utes continued to inhabit the mountains.

Die großen Fortschritte in der Fernerkundung sowie die Verfügbarkeit umfangreicher neuer Satellitendaten machten die Neuauflage des bekannten 8-bändigen "Manual of Remote Sensing" erforderlich. Behandelt werden Theorie und praktische Anwendungsmöglichkeiten von Fernerkundungs-Satellitendaten auf geologische Problemstellungen. Darüber hinaus beschreibt Band 3 die technischen Mittel zur Erzielung der Daten (Radar, Licht-, Infrarot- und geophysikalische Sensoren) und deren Anwendungsbereiche (Exploration von Erz- und Kohlelagerstätten, Stratigraphie, technische Geologie und Umweltstudien). Dieser Band bietet eine ideale Kombination von Theorie, Datenanalyse und Fallstudien zur Veranschaulichung grundlegender Konzepte.

This book presents the theories and methods for geology intelligent interpretation based on deep learning and remote sensing technologies. The main research subjects of this book include lithology and mineral abundance. This book focuses on the following five aspects: 1. Construction of geology remote sensing datasets from multi-level (pixel-level, scene-level, semantic segmentation-level, prior knowledge-assisted, transfer learning dataset), which are the basis of geology interpretation based on deep learning. 2. Research on lithology scene classification based on deep learning, prior knowledge, and remote sensing. 3. Research on lithology semantic segmentation based on deep learning and remote sensing. 4. Research on lithology classification based on transfer learning and remote sensing. 5. Research on inversion of mineral abundance based on the sparse unmixing theory and hyperspectral remote sensing. The book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in geology, remote sensing, and artificial intelligence. It is also used as a reference book for scientific and technological personnel of geological exploration.
