New Vision.<\/em>, will show you how to exploit these new sources using the image processing and spatial analysis capabilities available with ArcGIS. The target audience is broad and ranges from students to GIS professionals to armchair geographers.\r\n\r\nAvailable in a print edition or as an interactive PDF, it will give readers a fundamental understanding of imagery and remote sensing and how it can be used with GIS. It provides hands-on experience working with imagery and remote-sensing data in ArcGIS via the book's interactive companion website.\u00a0The ArcGIS Imagery Book<\/em>\u00a0is the second in a series of books from Esri that provides an online learning experience that demonstrates realistic applications of the technology. Both make ArcGIS software available via the companion website or the interactive PDF edition so that readers can begin working with imagery in ArcGIS.\r\n\r\nThe book looks not only at the fascinating history and rapid evolution of earth observation technology but also at modern earth imaging technologies being used in precision agriculture, forestry, mining, humanitarian aid, urban planning, natural disaster assessment, and climate and weather studies. Readers will learn what can be accomplished today, thanks to advances in ArcGIS, imagery, remote sensing, and cloud computing.\r\n\r\nThrough its 200 links,\u00a0The ArcGIS Imagery Book<\/em>\u00a0and its companion website gives readers access to the following resources:\r\n
