Preface This book contributes to the diverse and dynamic research theme of advances in remote sensing and GIS analysis. Continuing the tradition of other edited volumes, it is the product of a stimulating meeting organized jointly by members of the U.K. Remote Sensing Society’s (now Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Society) Modelling and Advanced Techniques (MAT) and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) Special Interest Groups (SIG). These two SIGs hold regular meetings and are an invaluable forum for vibrant discussions between undergraduates, graduates, professional academics and practitioners of GIS and environmental modelling. This particular meeting was held at Birkbeck College, University of London on 17 November, 2000 and attracted about 100 delegates. The plan to organize a one-day meeting was originally hatched (perhaps during a reckless moment of bravado) at the 1999 annual conference of the Remote Sensing Society in Cardiff. Convened by Nick Drake, Stuart Barr and Richard Kelly, the one-day symposium was slightly different to previous meetings in that the theme was more narrowly focussed than before. Speakers were asked to present aspects of their research and how it relates to spatial modelling of terrestrial environments, one of the themes running through both MAT and GIS SIGs. Ten speakers presented their up-to-date research and there was plenty of scope for some vibrant discussion and exchange of ideas. From the ten presentations, six are included as chapters in this book and five new contributors were sought to enhance the existing contributions, and also add an international dimension to the volume. To provide some context for the different contributions, we have also included our own personal views about the three broad areas of applications and how spatial modelling is an important strand running through each application. These are personal views that offer our own interpretation on some very rapidly advancing GIS and modelling fields. We hope that the book will be useful for students and researchers alike. Inevitably, there are omissions in the topics covered and responsibility for any omissions lies squarely with the editors. Furthermore, most of the topics covered in this volume are rapidly evolving
