Abstract

The information technology (IT) revolution of the past decade has coincided with a revolution in spatial IT on all three fronts: imaging, positioning, and processing. Advances in imaging or remote sensing (RS) have made available high-resolution satellite imagery at fairly accessible prices, almost rendering traditional aerial photographs obsolete. Hand-held global positioning systems (GPSs) are not only affordable but now are able to indicate position within 10m accuracy or better with the removal of “selective availability” (a euphemism for manually-induced noise) in May 2000.
