Remote Sensing with IDRISI Taiga: A Beginner's Guide

Remote Sensing with IDRISI Taiga, co-authored by Timothy Warner and David J. Campagna, has recently been published by Geocarto International Centre in Hong Kong, and is available for purchase from Clark Labs. The text is ideal for students and professionals seeking a hands-on, guided exploration of the fundamental issues in remote sensing and image processing, using the techniques and approaches within the IDRISI Taiga software.

The text introduces the reader to the display and basic processing procedures for enhancement, analysis and classification of satellite imagery, and trains the user in how to accomplish these tasks within the IDRISI environment. The text comes with sample data from a number of locations around the globe, covering a variety of natural and human-modified environments.

The Geocarto International Centre website provides a PDF of the first chapter of this guide.
