Planetary Remote Sensing and Mapping

Introduces original research and new developments in the areas of planetary remote sensing, photogrammetry, mapping, GIS, and planetary science resulting from the recent space exploration missions. This book will serve scientists and professionals working in planetary remote sensing/mapping, engineers, and planetary geologists and geophysicists.

The early 21^st century marks a new era in space exploration. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) of the United States, The European Space Agency (ESA), as well as space agencies of Japan, China, India, and other countries have sent their probes to the Moon, Mars, and other planets in the solar system. Planetary Remote Sensing and Mapping introduces original research and new developments in the areas of planetary remote sensing, photogrammetry, mapping, GIS, and planetary science resulting from the recent space exploration missions.

Topics covered include:

Reference systems of planetary bodies
Planetary exploration missions and sensors
Geometric information extraction from planetary remote sensing data
Feature information extraction from planetary remote sensing data
Planetary remote sensing data fusion
Planetary data management and presentation
