      abstract = {This edited book is a collection of information on recent  advancements in remote sensing for forestry application.  The main focus of this book is to address the novel  applications in remote sensing in terms of recent  techniques, sensors, methods and data collection. Remote  sensing has been used for many decades. Today, remote  sensing is heavily utilized in forest management, which is  acquired from airborne and space-borne platforms using  satellite data. In recent years, there have been rapid  advances in the new types of sensors. The new generations  of satellite sensors are introduced not only to provide  important information on forest ecosystems, but also to  improve the techniques and accuracies obtained by the  traditional approaches. Researchers have become  increasingly aware of the potential of remote sensing to  address important forestry issues and challenges. The  number of forestry publications using remote sensing has  grown very rapidly, and this is noticeable with many recent  technologies and applications. This book provides valuable  source of reference to foresters, researchers, ecologists,  climate change scientists and scholars who use remote  sensing in their work. Furthermore, it serves as an  academic book for undergraduate and graduate students of  forestry, agriculture, natural resources and environmental  sciences. The book demonstrates and engages the students  how the new advancements in remote sensing technology and  theory relate to the many real-world forestry applications.  It gives readers deeper understanding on how remote sensing  has come a long way and evolved into a mature science in  the past five decades.},
