Editorial Review:
This book is a completely updated, greatly expanded version of the previously successful volume by the author. The Second Edition includes new results and data, and discusses a unified framework and rationale for designing and evaluating image processing algorithms.
Written from the viewpoint that image processing supports remote sensing science, this book describes physical models for remote sensing phenomenology and sensors and how they contribute to models for remote-sensing data. The text then presents image processing techniques and interprets them in terms of these models. Spectral, spatial, and geometric models are used to introduce advanced image processing techniques such as hyperspectral image analysis, fusion of multisensor images, and digital elevationmodel extraction from stereo imagery.
The material is suited for graduate level engineering, physical and natural science courses, or practicing remote sensing scientists. Each chapter is enhanced by student exercises designed to stimulate an understanding of the material. Over 300 figuresare produced specifically for this book, and numerous tables provide a rich bibliography of the research literature.

An essential reference for all spatial data scientists 2004-05-20
This book (known simply as "The Schowengerdt Text" in our lab) is one of the most necessary books for anyone interested in advanced remote sensing or photogrammetric analysis. Though peppered with equations, the majority of the text is written clearly. What this tome has that others severly skimp on, is the abundance of diagrams and actual image/data examples from selected sensors. The advanced chapters covering spatial transforms, spectral transforms, and sensor models were particularly good. This was a 5-star book when released, but today it grades out at a solid "4." Saying that, a new edition with updated sensors (and summaries of the caveats/benefits/uses of each) and more color plates would be greatly welcome. If your going to nit-pick about anything with this book, the index could have been a little more comprehensive.


Excellent Resource 2003-01-25
Probably one of the best books on image processing i have seen. I recommend this to all undergraduate and graduate students taking up Remote Sensing and Image Processing. Very comprehensive!
