Remote Sensing and Digital Image Processing with R
暫譯: 遙感與數位影像處理使用 R

這本關於自然資源的遙感與數位影像處理的新教科書包含了許多實用的問題解決練習，應用傳感器和衛星系統，利用遙感數據收集資源，並強調免費和開源平台 R。它解釋了遙感的基本概念及其多學科應用，通過實際的真實項目讓學生參與學習理論。所有章節都結構化地包含學習目標、計算、問題、已解決的練習、資源和研究建議。

**特點**

1. 解釋被動和主動遙感的理論及其在水、土壤、植被和大氣中的應用。
2. 涵蓋在免費和開源 (FOSS) R 平台上的數據分析，使遙感對任何擁有電腦的人都可及。
3. 包含來自不同環境的案例研究，使用免費軟體算法和 R 工具集進行主動學習和實踐學習。
4. 在每章結尾提供實作練習，鼓勵讀者理解環境、遙感目標和過程的潛力與限制。
5. 在家庭作業中探索遙感的當前趨勢和發展，提供數據以進一步探索免費多光譜遙感數據的使用，包括用於目標識別的非常高空間解析度數據源及影像處理技術。

雖然本書的重點在於環境和農業工程，但它也可以廣泛應用於物理、自然和社會科學等多種主題。修習遙感、地理處理、土木與環境工程、地球科學、環境科學、電機工程、生物學和水文學的高年級本科生或研究生將從本書的學習目標中受益。使用遙感和數位處理的專業人士也會發現這本書的啟發性。

Marcelo de Carvalho Alves

Dr. Alves is an associate professor at the Federal University de Lavras, Brazil. His education includes master's, doctoral, and post-doctoral degrees in Agricultural Engineering at Federal University of Lavras, Brazil. He has varied research interests and has published on surveying, remote sensing, geocomputation, and agriculture applications. He has over 20 years of extensive experience in data science, digital image processing, and modeling using multiscale, multidisciplinary, multispectral, and multitemporal concepts applied to different environments. Experimental field sites included a tropical forest, savanna, wetland, and agricultural fields in Brazil. His research has been predominantly funded by CNPq, CAPES, FAPEMIG, and FAPEMAT. Over the years, he has built a large portfolio of research grants, mostly relating to applied and theoretical remote sensing, broadly in the context of vegetation cover, plant diseases, and related impacts of climate change.

Luciana Sanches

Dr. Sanches graduated with a degree in Sanitary Engineering from the Federal University of Mato Grosso, Brazil, a master's degree in Sanitation, Environment, and Water Resources from the Federal University of Minas Gerais, a PhD in Road Engineering, Hydraulic Channels, and Ports from Universidad de Cantabria, Spain, a post-doctorate degree in Environmental Physics, Brazil, and a post-doctorate degree in Environmental Sciences from the University of Reading, United Kingdom. Her education includes postgraduate degreees in Workplace Safety Engineering at Federal University of Mato Grosso, Brazil, and in Project Development and Management for Municipal Water Resources Management by the National Water Agency, Brazil. She is currently an associate professor at the Federal University of Mato Grosso, and worked for more than 20 years in research on atmosphere-biosphere interaction, hydrometeorology in various temporal-spatial scales with interpretation based in environmental modeling and remote sensing. She has been applying remote sensing in teaching and research activities to support the interpretation of environmental dynamics.
