Product Description
From recent developments in digital image processing to the next generation of satellite systems, the sixth edition of this comprehensive text introduces students to the latest developments in the exciting field of remote sensing and image interpretation. The text examines the basics of analog image analysis while placing greater emphasis on digitally based systems and analysis techniques. The presentation is discipline neutral, so students in any field of study can gain a clear understanding of these systems and their virtually unlimited applications. |

Great technical overview with enough gory details to stay interesting 
I am reading this book for an introductory course in Remote Sensing. I thoroughly enjoy the level of detail and the presentation of quantitative methods for analyzing data. The text can be somewhat dry (and dense) at times and difficult to digest, but for the most part, it manages to stay interesting. There are a lot of illustrations (including a whole section of color plates) that the student can reference. Also, the scope of the book is broad enough to be suitable for an introductory course, but still manages to stay focused (only 8 chapters!).

Not the best 
I've seen other books give better explanations of remote sensing, and the amount of visuals in the book could be improved. They made concepts more difficult to understand they they had to.

Absolutly One of the BEST!! 
This book is one of the best on the market on Image Interpretation. After taking a class and the instructor had a different book (which was poorly written book) I bought this book. I found it interesting and easy to use, any math was explained step by step! I cant wait to get the 5th edition! This is a must for any person who is interested in this topic or is working in the field.

One of the best books in RS
One of the best text books in Remote Sensing: comprehensive, complete. I have the 1st, 2nd and 3rd editions. Will wait to the 4th edition in paperback.

A good technical overview of RS
The text is a comprehensive introduction to RS that covers the science from physical basis to sensors and applications. It is not a HOW-TO-DO-IT book as opposed to a complete textbooks for students in this area who need good background of the science and its application. We use it as a good textbook for solid foundation prior to more practical texts on HOW-TO-DO-IT.
