New chapters treat the history of Earth observation and university missions.

The number of commercial Earth imaging missions has grown significantly.

A chapter contains reference data and definitions. Extensive appendices provide a comprehensive glossary, acronyms and abbreviations and an index of sensors.

An effort has been made to present the information in context, to point out relationships and interconnections.
