QGIS and Applications in Agriculture and Forest

QGIS and Applications in Agriculture and Forest
by Nicolas Baghdadi and Clement Mallet
English | 2018 | ISBN: 1786301881 | 364 Pages | ePUB | 40 MB

These four volumes present innovative thematic applications implemented using the open source software QGIS. These are applications that use remote sensing over continental surfaces. The volumes detail applications of remote sensing over continental surfaces, with a first one discussing applications for agriculture.

Agriculture and forestry are fields strongly involved in the use of spatial data, which are essential for monitoring and restoring the spatial and temporal variability of surface states. The latter are key parameters in the understanding and modeling of different plant and soil processes, and in the management of agricultural or forest resources. In this context, the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) tools has long been present in accompanying the exploitation of spatial imagery.

The aim of this second volume is to present different applications in agriculture and forestry. The book, which is supported by scientists who are internationally renowned in their fields, will help update knowledge and describe research and development issues for years to come. It is intended for research teams in geomatics, second-cycle students (engineering schools, master’s degrees) and postgraduate studies (PhD students), and engineers involved in the monitoring and management of agricultural or forestry resources and more fundamentally in the extraction of the knowledge required for these needs. In addition to the texts of the proposed chapters, readers will have access to the data, computer tools as well as screenshots of all the windows, which illustrate all the steps necessary for the realization of each application.
