The QGIS in Remote Sensing Set aims to facilitate the appropriation and operational use of the Quantum Geographic Information System (QGIS) software in the field of remote sensing.
This fourth volume of the set is dedicated to the presentation and the practice of QGIS and its libraries of applications dealing with water and risk management issues. In the context of global changes (climatic and anthropogenic), understanding and quantifying water resource dynamics and the various aspects of risks is essential for managers in public authorities and local population.
This work is carried out by scientists who are proficient to a high level of technicality. The book is targeted at students (Masters, engineering students, PhDs), engineers involved in the management of water resources and territory, and research teams in geomatics. In addition to the text, readers will have access to data and tools allowing the integral realization of the scientific procedures described in each chapter, as well as screenshots of all the windows which illustrate the manipulations necessary for the realization of each application.
