Chapter 8 Raster Analysis and Terrain Modelling | Geomatics for Environmental Management: An Open Textbook for Students and Practitioners
The purpose of this textbook is to give students and practitioners a solid survey (pun intended) of what modern geomatics is capable of when confronting environmental management problems. We take a Canadian perspective to this approach, by telling the historical contributions of Canadians to the field and sharing real-world case studies of environmental management problems in Canada.
