4.0 out of 5 stars
Very comprehensive list of satellites and sensors
This book provides an impressively comprehensive list of current and historical earth observation satellites and sensors (including satellite-based radionavigation systems and selected space shuttle missions), and the included CD ROM provides an additional list of airborne sensors. Most satellites and sensors are described by a short text followed by a comprehensive list...

Observation of the Earth and Its Environment: Survey of Missions and Sensors
It is a very comprehensive review on technology and sensors exploited in the field. Personally I think it's a bit lacking in the analysis of methodologies used to extract relevant information from sensors' measures.

This review is from: Observation of the Earth and Its Environment: Survey of Missions and Sensors (Hardcover)
This book provides an impressively comprehensive list of current and historical earth observation satellites and sensors (including satellite-based radionavigation systems and selected space shuttle missions), and the included CD ROM provides an additional list of airborne sensors. Most satellites and sensors are described by a short text followed by a comprehensive list of technical details, such as orbit parameters, instrument parameters, power consumption, mission duration, etc. There are 522 figures and 857 tables. Appendices include a general glossary and a list of acronyms and abbreviations. If you need some technical information on any earth observation satellite or sensor, you will find it in this book. The only shortcoming of this 4th edition is its release date in 2001/2002 - some of the latest satellite missions are not listed at all or listed with outdated design specifications (example: TerraSAR-X). I hope the authors will continue to update this great book.
