Remote sensing and R Guide - Resources and Review

Covers integrated applications in the geotechnologies, including remote sensing, GIS, image processing, GPS, mapping, photogrammetry, orthophotography, and surveying. Tables of contents only.
 
Responsible for the reception, processing, archiving and dissemination of remotely sensed data for Canada. Offers information on CCRS research and development, a catalogue of satellite images, a bibliographic database of CCRS publications since 1971, instructions for ordering data, a remote sensing glossary and tutorials, and details of forthcoming Centre events.
 
Develops new tools and provides new solutions for the optimal use of the environment, particularly in the areas of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing. Includes information about research projects on topics such as river catchment management and remote sensing of lakes.
 
Tutorial on the role of space science and technology in monitoring the Earth's surface and atmosphere. Aims to demonstrate the use of remote sensing instruments or sensors to 'capture' the spectral and spatial relations of objects and materials observable at a distance.
 
Links to electronic cartographic resources including maps, charts, remote sensing images, and other spatial data. There are also links to map catalogues, inventories, and bibliographies.
 
A bibliographic database on research, programs, and results which relate to the use of satellite remote sensing for disaster mitigation. A compilation of abstracted articles published since 1981 in relevant areas including: fires, eruptions, earthquakes, landslides, flooding, hurricanes, tsunami, avalanches
 
Collection of satellite images depicting Canadian locations as seen from space. Each entry is accompanied by information about corresponding maps and tutorial sections to aid interpretation of images shown. Areas covered include Yukon, the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland.
 
Guide designed to serve as an introduction to the world of Japanese GIS, remote sensing, geospatial data products, maps, activities and information sources.
 
Supplier of remote sensing products and services to partner institutions and the public. Offers a selection of news releases and articles relating to the company.
 
Aims to provide information about volcanoes to the public. Includes information about current global volcanic activity, research in remote sensing of volcanoes and their eruptive products, and hazard mitigation.
 
Good practice report to documenting and organising aerial photography, remote sensing, archaeological, and digital data.
 
Non
governmental organisation devoted to the development of international cooperation for the advancement of photogrammetry and remote sensing and their applications. PRS is the art, science, and technology of obtaining reliable information from non-contact imaging and other sensor systems about the Earth and its environment.
 
Index of online resources covering topics including human and physical geography, cartography, planning and transportation, and remote sensing. Details of UK geography, geology and meteorology departments are given, and online field trips and tours are available.
 
Links to geography related sites all over the world. Includes university departments, GIS and remote sensing resources and geography newsgroups.
