This third issue of the Asian-Pacific Remote Sensing contains 17 articles on topics as varied as the detection of aeolian sand accumulations via satellite images, urban green spaces study through aerial photography and the usefulness of a contextual classification algorithm for land-use/land-cover mapping. we feel confident that each reader will fin…
The regional Remote sensing Programme (UNDP/RAS/86/141) was initiated in March 1983 and is a project of the governments of Asia and Pacific. The United Nations Development programme is providing financial support to this project. National agencies for remote sensing and related ministries in the in the region are the co-ordinating agencies for the R…

Instructors may benefit from a preview of some of the changes implemented for this fifth edition. first, we have revised the material pertaining to aerial photography to recognize the transition from analog to digital systems. Although within the realm of commercial practice, this transition has been under way for decades, it has not been fully reco…
. The synoptic view afforded by orbiting earth sensors can be' extremely valuable for resource evaluation, environmental monitoring and development planning. For many regions of the world, however, cloud cover has prevented the acquisition of remotely sensed data during the most environmentally stressed periods of t…
