 Open Source GIS: A GRASS GIS Approach
Over the past decade, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have evolved
from a highly specialized niche to a technology that affects nearly every aspect
of our lives, from finding driving directions to managing natural disasters.
While just a few years ago the use of GIS was restricted to a group of
researchers, planners and... | | | | Remote Sensing of Snow and Ice
Although our planet is characterized by water, the extent to which water in its
frozen state plays a role in the functioning of the Earth is perhaps underappreciated.
Snow and ice cover about a sixth of the Earth’s surface, as snow
lying on the ground, as glaciers and larger masses of terrestrial ice, including
the huge... |

Still Image and Video Compression with MATLAB
The term “video compression” is now a common household name. The field of still
image and video compression has matured to the point that it is possible to watch
movies on a laptop computer. Such is the rapidity at which technology in various
fields has advanced and is advancing. However, this creates a need for some to... | | Quantitative Remote Sensing of Land Surfaces
Remote sensing has entered a new era in the twenty-first century with a
series of operating satellites from the NASA Earth Observing System (EOS)
program, other international programs, and commercial programs. Since
November 2000 the first civilian spaceborne hyperspectral sensor, Hyperion,
has observed land surfaces on the... | | Writing for Digital Media
In the digital age, we are all consumers and producers, readers and publishers
alike. The Internet has made it possible for anyone to publish his or her writing
online almost instantaneously for all the world to read.
The evolution of digital media has introduced both unprecedented challenges
