The Operational Use of Remote Sensing in Municipalities: A Global Expert-based Study
Arthur Lehner
This book presents the operational use of remote sensing in municipalities for urban planning purposes. Through a unique study among more than 70 cities and institutions in 41 countries, it reveals the remaining gap of knowledge and awareness for remote sensing data, methods, and instruments. It sheds light on the uncertainties and shows what remote sensing data are acquired and by which departments they are used. The tasks and activities remote sensing data are used for, are extensively presented. In the times of open government data, digital citizenship and participation movements, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the topic and intends to raise the awareness for the importance of remote sensing to the society.

It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read.
Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame.
Keep reading books, but remember that a book is only a book, and you should learn to think for yourself.
A book is a device to ignite the imagination.
The one thing that offends me the most is when I walk by a bank and see ads trying to convince people to take out second mortgages on their home so they can go on vacation. That's approaching evil.
Great books help you understand, and they help you feel understood.
Screw it, Let’s do it!
