Towards safety from toxic gases in underground mines using wireless sensor networks and ambient intelligence Chapter 4. Introducing the iron potential using remote sensing studies in south of Qom province, Iran Chapter 5. Web of things-based remote monitoring system for coal mine safety using wireless sensor network Chapter 6. Remotely sensed image retrieval based on region-level semantic mining Chapter 7. A BIM-Based Monitoring system for urban deep excavation Chapter 8. Modeling Critical forest habitat in the southern coal fields of west virginia

This book discussed on the basic principles of remote sensing and its applications in mine environment monitoring. Building from a reader’s basic knowledge of mine monitoring, it teaches how to implement remote sensing techniques and how to interpret the acquired data for different purposes. Following a general introduction to remote sensing principles and image analysis, mine subsidence monitoring, slope stability monitoring, reclamation planning and implementation, and post-closure mine and land use analysis are explained and illustrated. With the help of case studies, the techniques and tools presented are demonstrated.
