Remote Sensing and Digital Image Processing with R - Textbook and Lab Manual

Marcelo de Carvalho Alves Dr. Alves is associate professor at the Federal University de Lavras, Brazil. His education includes master’s, doctoral, and post-doctoral degrees in Agricultural Engineering at Federal University of Lavras, Brazil. He has varied research interests and has published on surveying, remote sensing, geocomputation and agriculture applications. He has over 20 years of extensive experience in data science, digital image processing and modeling using multiscale, multidisciplinary, multispectral and multitemporal concepts applied to different environments. Experimental field-sites included a tropical forest, savanna, wetland and agricultural fields in Brazil. His research has been pre- dominantly funded by CNPq, CAPES, FAPEMIG and FAPEMAT. Over the years, he has built up a large portfolio of research grants mostly relating to applied and theoretical remote sensing, broadly in the context of vegetation cover, plant diseases and related impacts of climate changes. Luciana Sanches Dr. Sanches graduated with a degree in Sanitary Engineering from the Federal University of Mato Grosso, Brazil, a master’s degree in Sanitation, Environment and Water Resources from the Federal University of Minas Gerais, a PhD in Road Engineering, Hydraulic Channels and Ports from Universidad de Cantabria, Spain, a post-doctorate degree in Environmental Physics, Brazil, and a post-doctorate degree in Environmental Sciences from the University of Reading, United Kingdom. She specialized in workplace safety engineering and in project development and management for the Municipal Water Resources Management by the National Water Agency. She is currently associate professor at the Federal University of Mato Grosso, and worked for more than 20 years in research on atmosphere-biosphere interaction, hydrometeorology in meant temporal-spatial scales with interpretation based in environmental modeling and remote sensing. She has been applying geomatics in teaching and research activities to support the interpretation of environmental dynamics.
