Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the need for geographical data rapidly expands in the 21st century, so too do applications of small-format aerial photography for a wide range of scientific, commercial and governmental purposes. Small-format Aerial Photography (SFAP) presents basic and advanced principles and techniques with an emphasis on digital cameras. Unmanned platforms are described in considerable detail, including kites, helium and hot-air blimps, model airplanes, and paragliders. Several case studies, primarily drawn from the geosciences, are presented to demonstrate how SFAP is actually used in various applications. Many of these integrate SFAP with ground-based investigations as well as conventional large-format aerial photography, satellite imagery, and other kinds of geographic information. Full-color photographs throughout Case studies from around the globe Techniques presented allow for image resolution impossible to match via traditional aerial photography or satellite datasets Glossary clarifies key terms

Book excerpt: Intended for geography students who are enrolled in, or who have completed, an introductory course in remote sensing; for geography researchers; and for professors; this publication focuses specifically on those general issues regarding the organization and presentation of land use information derived from aerial imagery. Many of the ideas presented were developed in teaching geography to university undergraduates. There are seven chapters. In chapter 1, the practical significance of land use information is illustrated and modern land use surveys are discussed. Chapter 2 discusses concepts and definitions of land use, the applications of remote sensing, and the advantages and disadvantages of aerial imagery. Historical examples of land use inventory are provided in the third chapter. Chapter 4 examines principles and conventions for preparing land use maps. Manual interpretation for land use mapping is the focus of the fifth chapter. Chapters 6 and 7 deal with the machine processing of remotely sensed data and accuracy assessment, respectively. (RM)
