Remote sensing and GIS for ecologists: using open source software
Remote sensing and GIS for ecologists using open source software enables ecologists to integrated remote sensing and GIS in their daily work. It will allow ecologists to get started with the application of remote sensing and to understands its potential and limitations. Using practical examples, the book covers all necessary steps from planning field campaigns to deriving ecologically relevant information through remote sensing and modelling of speciess distribution.rnAll practical examples in this book rely on open source software and freely available data sets. Quantum GIS (QGIS) is introduced for basic GIS data handling, and in-depth spatial analytics and statiscs are conducted with the softawre package R.rnReader will learn how to apply remote sensing within ecological reseach project, how to approach spatial data sampling and how to interpret remote sensing- derived products. The authors discuss a wide range of statistical analyses with regard to satellite data as well as specialised topics such as species distribution modeling. Extended scrits for specific spatial data analysis are also provided.
