By providing a spectrum of imaging capabilities, resolutions and temporal and spatial coverage, remote sensing data acquired from satellite, aerial and ground-based platforms provide key geo-information to characterize and model these processes. This book includes research papers on novel technologies (e.g., sensors, platforms), data (e.g., multi-spectral, radar, laser scanning, GPS, gravity) and analysis methods (e.g., change detection, offset tracking, structure from motion, 3D modeling, radar interferometry, automated classification, machine learning, spectral indices, probabilistic approaches) for flood and glacier imaging. Through target applications and case studies distributed globally, these articles contribute to the discussion on the current potential and limitations of remote sensing in this specialist research field, as well as the identification of trends and future perspectives.Research & information: generalbicsscglacier surgeglacier collapserock-slope instabilityhazardLandsatSentinel 2Tibetflood extent mappingsupervised classificationNDWIsynthetic aperture radar (SAR)web applicationsynthetic aperture radaroffset trackingdisplacementsSentinel-1glacier monitoringflood mappingdamage assessmentSAR imageLandsat-8Google Earth EngineGEEBangladeshSAR intensity time seriesurban flood mappingdouble bounce effectHurricane MatthewfloodFPIGRACEterrestrial water storage anomalystorage deficitmass balancesnow depthglacier retreatsurface DEMelevation changeSentinelSecchi diskchlorophyll asedimentsphytoplanktonfloodsremote sensingGISdisaster mappingLower Chenab PlainlaserscanningUAV-structure from Motionmulti-spectral satellite datasynthetic Aperture Radarglacier lake evolutionglacier riverslope processesrock fallcryospherefusioninundation probabilityHurricane HarveyADCIRCResearch & information: generalCigna Francescaedt1297618Xie HongjieedtChokmani KaremedtCigna FrancescaothXie HongjieothChokmani KaremothBOOK9910557770603321Imaging Floods and Glacier Geohazards with Remote Sensing3031371UNINA
