From the reviews: "The book has brought together a wide variety of remote sensing and GIS applications and their integrations with other techniques for disaster management and emergency response handling. Inclusion of practical examples drawn from case studies makes it easier for the reader to understand the theoretical concepts. ... a basic guide for the beginners who are interested in gaining technical expertise in the field of remote sensing and GIS applications for disaster management and emergency response handling." (Ranjani Wasantha Kulawardhana, International Journal of Digital Earth, Vol. 4 (6), November, 2011)
