Gamba (telecommunications, U. of Pavia, Italy) and Herold (coordinator, European Space Agency Global Observation for Forest and Land Cover Dynamics project, Friedrich Schiller U., Germany) present 16 chapters that collectively provide an overview of experiences, methodologies, datasets, and approaches related to the use of remotely sensed data to map human settlements. The focus is on global- and coarse-scale analyses, and on global and regional datasets, with applications to land cover/land use and population mapping. The chapters are presented in sections discussing requirements for urban remote sensing, urban characterization over large areas, mapping and monitoring projects and research, and critical issues and avenues for further research.
