From agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and environmental protection to construction, civil engineering, and high-precision mapping.
The world revealed by satellites and drones: The free provision of commercial satellite data from public agencies (NASA, ESA) is progressing, and numerous businesses utilizing this data are about to emerge. While there are many books summarizing the basics of remote sensing and data analysis techniques, there has not been a technical book that compiles application examples from various fields into one volume. This book is ideal not only for researchers and developers involved in various fields of remote sensing but also for those considering the creation of new businesses. By analyzing and interpreting data captured from satellites and drones, it explains various use cases of satellite imagery, such as predicting crop yields and managing growth, monitoring infrastructure like roads and railways, preventing illegal logging in the Amazon region, and understanding changes in the marine environment.
