Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the fundamentals, technologies, and methods of space optical remote sensing and system design. The author introduces concepts and methods established during his decades of research and practice, covering topics such as difference between the spatial resolution of pixel and the resolution of traditional film, the resolution of remote sensing image for characteristics and target recognition purpose, and image shift problem of sampling image space. The book comprehensively and systematically introduces the basic concepts, theories, parameter design calculations of imaging cameras, multispectral cameras, surveying cameras, infrared cameras, and imaging spectrometers, their respective system components, and performance evaluation of space optical remote sensing systems. The book also discusses the overall design of space optical remote sensing systems, including light sources, the ground-air system, target characteristics, spectrum selection, energy calculation, orbital parameters, optical remote sensor parameters, spacecraft parameters coordination and selection, comprehensive analysis, and large-scale system performance evaluation methods, forming a complete idea on how to achieve the goals of the system design. The book enables readers to understand the working principles of the whole systems from a theoretical depth and grasp the full skillset on how to implement advantages and balance technical difficulties for orbit, subsystems of the platform, and payloads. The book is a must-read for those who seek to build strong ability for research, development, and innovation surrounding the subject matter.

Book excerpt: This open access book is the first to systematically introduce the principles of urban informatics and its application to every aspect of the city that involves its functioning, control, management, and future planning. It introduces new models and tools being developed to understand and implement these technologies that enable cities to function more efficiently – to become ‘smart’ and ‘sustainable’. The smart city has quickly emerged as computers have become ever smaller to the point where they can be embedded into the very fabric of the city, as well as being central to new ways in which the population can communicate and act. When cities are wired in this way, they have the potential to become sentient and responsive, generating massive streams of ‘big’ data in real time as well as providing immense opportunities for extracting new forms of urban data through crowdsourcing. This book offers a comprehensive review of the methods that form the core of urban informatics from various kinds of urban remote sensing to new approaches to machine learning and statistical modelling. It provides a detailed technical introduction to the wide array of tools information scientists need to develop the key urban analytics that are fundamental to learning about the smart city, and it outlines ways in which these tools can be used to inform design and policy so that cities can become more efficient with a greater concern for environment and equity.
