Features: Remote sensing digital image processing is an emerging technology that combines computer digital image processing with remote sensing image analysis techniques. Its emergence has fundamentally changed traditional remote sensing image processing methods and recognition approaches. This book is a classic specialized work on remote sensing digital image processing, covering an extremely broad range of content with in-depth theoretical foundations and strong practical applicability. Each chapter includes a wealth of image materials, combined with practical analysis, to comprehensively and systematically discuss remote sensing digital image processing from various aspects, such as basic principles, fundamental knowledge, processing steps, and application examples. This book also serves as a reference manual for practical applications. It systematically introduces remote sensing digital image processing technology, with main content including: remote sensing data acquisition, hardware and software for remote sensing digital image processing, quality assessment and statistical evaluation of remote sensing images, remote sensing image display and scientific visualization, radiometric correction (atmospheric correction), geometric correction, image enhancement, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence-based information extraction, hyperspectral image analysis, change detection, and thematic information accuracy evaluation. The book contains numerous exquisite images and provides detailed analysis of key image processing concepts. Each chapter concludes with a substantial list of references for further study. This book can be used as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in remote sensing digital image processing, as well as a reference manual for engineering technicians.
