Application of Remote Sensing and GIS in Natural Resources and Built Infrastructure Management, 1st ed. 2022 Water Science and Technology Library Series, Vol. 105

This book discusses the problems in planning, building, and management strategies in the wake of application and expansion of remote sensing and GIS products in natural resources and infrastructure management. The book suggests proactive solutions to problems of natural resources and infrastructure management, providing alternatives for strategic planning, effective delivery, and growth perspectives. The uniqueness of the book is its broader spectrum of coverage with related interconnections and interdependences across science, engineering, and innovation.  The book contains information that can be downscaled to the local level.

Introduction.- Applications to Agriculture and Forestry.- Water Resources and Ecology.- Urban Management.- Case Studies.- Conclusions and Recommendations.
