Airborne and spaceborne remote sensing for archaeological and cultural heritage applications: A review of the century (1907–2017)

TLDR
In this article, the advantages of airborne and spaceborne remote sensing (ASRS), the principles that make passive (photography, multispectral and hyperspectral) and active (synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and light detection and ranging radar (LiDAR)) imaging techniques suitable for ACH applications are summarized and pointed out; a review of ASRS and the methodologies used over the past century is then presented together with relevant highlights from well-known research projects.

Contribution of Remote Sensing Technologies to a Holistic Coastal and Marine Environmental Management Framework: A Review

TL;DR: This research identifies how remote sensing can contribute to filling gaps so that environmental agencies, such as the United Nations Environmental Programme, European Environmental Agency, and International Union for Conservation of Nature, can better implement environmental directives in a cost-effective manner.

UAS-Based Archaeological Remote Sensing: Review, Meta-Analysis and State-of-the-Art

TL;DR: This article tracks the progress made so far by systematically reviewing the literature relevant to the combined use of UAS platforms with visible, infrared, multi-spectral, hyper-spectrals, laser, and radar sensors to reveal archaeological features otherwise invisible to archaeologists with applied non-destructive techniques.

A new algorithm for surface deformation monitoring based on small baseline differential SAR interferograms

TL;DR: Results obtained on the data acquired from 1992 to 2000 by the European Remote Sensing satellites and relative to the Campi Flegrei caldera and to the city of Naples, Italy, that demonstrate the capability of the proposed approach to follow the dynamics of the detected deformations.

Lidar Remote Sensing for Ecosystem Studies

TL;DR: Lidar has been shown to accurately estimate aboveground biomass and leaf area index even in those high-biomass ecosystems where passive optical and active radar sensors typically fail to do so as discussed by the authors.
