Content:
This is a comprehensive book on remote sensing, covering the entire spectrum of energies, wave and particle interactions and field generation, spectrum and image production, from magnetosphere to surface, from high energy gamma-rays to low energy sonic waves, for the Earth and planets. Software and hardware tools specific to each spectral region for capturing, analyzing, and combining data will also be discussed. This book reviews and creates a basis for those experts in one energy region or one system to gain insight in understanding and combining data from other regions and systems (data fus
