Emphasizing on both visual interpretation and computer-aided interpretation methods, this book introduces the basic concepts, historical development, and future trends in satellite remote sensing image interpretation. This book analyzes the physical foundations of satellite remote sensing, the spectral characteristics of typical ground objects, and the content of satellite remote sensing image processing. Based on information theory, it explores the flow of information during the image formation process of satellite remote sensing images from a theoretical perspective. Through representative case studies, the book bridges the gap between theoretical methods and practical applications.Satellite Remote Sensing Image Interpretation explores the distinct characteristics of images captured using four types of satellite remote sensing technologies — visible light, hyperspectral, infrared, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) — and their corresponding unique interpretation approaches. It also discusses the application of intelligent interpretation methods in satellite remote sensing image analysis, along with current innovative ideas in the field.
