Satellite Geology and Photogeomorphology An Instructional Manual for Data Integration /
The twin sets of figures in the manual are presented as examples that demonstrate how the interfacing of stereo airphotos and satellite images in visual qualitative photogeomorphology studies can yield more geospatial information than can be derived from either source independently. The airphoto cov...
