This book comprises 4 main sections. Section 1 presents night-time images of the Pearl River Delta region, and Hong Kong & its environs. Section 2 contains images of 15 m resolution acquired by Landsat-7 satellite. Section 3 includes photos of 2 m resolution obtained by the Corona satellite. Section 4 features colour images of 60 cm resolution taken by the QuickBird satellite. These images were collected in the period 1969 - 2008. They show the spectacular changes in the Pearl River Delta region over the past 39 years.

This book is a sequel to the book, "Global Environmental Databases" which was published in July 2000 as one of the activities by the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS Working Group IV/6 (1996-2000)). The following Working Group IV/8 (2000-2004) on "Global Environmental Databases" has taken over this activity by the same cochairmen, Tateishi and Hastings.

As the same as the first book, this book consists of two parts - Thematic domains and Cross-cutting issues. The Part I, Thematic domains, deals with specific types of global environmental data, such as climatic data, livestock data, land use data, and biophysical data. The Part 2, Cross-cutting issues, deals with common subjects among various environmental parameters, such as remote sensing data, spatial data infrastructures, administrative and cultural challenges and policy aspects.

Research, education, and policy making of/for global environmental change need global databases of environmental parameters. This book was written, as the first attempt, by internationally reputed scientists to review the present situation of existing global datasets, to identify obstacles in global datasets/ databases development and their usage, and to find the better directions to remove these obstacles.

The book consists of two parts: Thematic domains and Cross-cutting issues. This book is useful for environmental scientists, remote sensing scientists, spatial information scientists, and graduate students of these fields.
