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 and information: generalbicsscADCIRCBangladeshchlorophyll acryospheredamage assessmentdisaster mappingdisplacementsdouble bounce effectelevation changefloodflood extent mappingflood mappingfloodsFPIfusionGEEGISglacier collapseglacier lake evolutionglacier monitoringglacier retreatglacier riverglacier surgeGoogle Earth EngineGRACEhazardHurricane HarveyHurricane Matthewinundation probabilityLandsatLandsat-8laserscanningLower Chenab Plainmass balancemulti-spectral satellite datan/aNDWIoffset trackingphytoplanktonremote sensingrock fallrock-slope instabilitySAR imageSAR intensity time seriesSecchi disksedimentsSentinelSentinel 2Sentinel-1slope processessnow depthstorage deficitsupervised classificationsurface DEMsynthetic aperture radarsynthetic Aperture Radarsynthetic aperture radar (SAR)terrestrial water storage anomalyTibetUAV-structure from Motionurban flood mappingweb applicationResearch and information: generalCigna Francescaedt1297618Xie HongjieedtChokmani KaremedtCigna FrancescaothXie HongjieothChokmani KaremothBOOK9910557770603321Imaging Floods and Glacier Geohazards with Remote Sensing3031371UNINA
