Foreword
Remote sensing (RS) has emerged as an important technique and tool that blends developments in computer science and Geographical Information System (GIS) for analyzing the various dimensions of the environment and adheres to its applications in almost every field. Remote sensing being cost and time effective is helpful in analyzing the temporal and spatial pattern of natural resources and distribution of population. The multispectral remote sensing datasets have provided effective assessment of natural resources and their management. These datasets are also promising in determining the population pattern, urban sprawl, and changes in land use/land cover. RS and GIScience have
