The Roles of Remote Sensing in Nature Conservation (eBook, PDF)

A Practical Guide and Case Studies
Redaktion: Díaz-Delgado, Ricardo; Hurford, Clive; Lucas, Richard

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The chapters provide real examples of remote sensing techniques applied to map a range of indicators required by conservation managers, such as habitat distribution and condition, biodiversity indicators or even individual plants with drones

Special chapters on Remote sensing imagery preparation for ecological studies, assessment of the use of drones to map nesting bird colonies or invasive plant species

Book sections lead the reader towards the specific application and every chapter provides practical lessons for nature conservation
