General note"This book treats statistical issues that are of relevance in spatial studies for remote sensing. It consists of contributions by international experts in the field. A brief overview of basic statistics is given, followed by physical aspects of remote sensing. Spatial statistics addresses classification of images by supervised and unsupervised procedures, estimation of spatial structures by variograms, interpolation, simulation, sampling, and issues of scale. Geographical information systems allow [us] to integrate remote sensing with other sources of information, concentrating on the concept of the pixel. Attention is also given to decision support for a wide variety of possible and important decisions. A single data set is used throughout the book. This book therefore provides an overview of the state-of-the-art of spatial statistics for remote sensing, highlighting new frontiers in this rapidly developing field of science."--back cover.
