About the Book: Remote Sensing of the Mine Environment
This book discussed on the basic principles of remote sensing and its
applications in mine environment monitoring. Building from a readers basic
knowledge of mine monitoring, it teaches how to implement remote sensing
techniques and how to interpret the acquired data for different purposes.
Following a general introduction to remote sensing principles and image
analysis, mine subsidence monitoring, slope stability monitoring, reclamation
planning and implementation, and post-closure mine and land use analysis are
explained and illustrated. With the help of case studies, the techniques and
tools presented are demonstrated.
