High resolution optical satellite imagery / Ian Dowman, Karsten Jacobsen, Gottfried Konecny, Rainer Sandau. - 1 online resource (xviii, 230 pages) : illustrations (some color)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Satellite imaging technology -- History of optical sensors in space -- Principles of high resolution optical sensors -- Sensors with a GSD of greater than 1 m up to 16 m -- Sensors with a GSD of 1 m or less -- Calibration, sensor models and orientation -- Processing and products -- Conclusions and future developments.

This is a comprehensive guide to the characteristics and use of high resolution optical images from satellite-borne sensors, concentrating on sensors designed for mapping. It considers the SPOT series of satellited and sensors with a ground sample distance (GSD) of less than 15m, operational since SPOT 1.
