This
chapter
walks
users
through
a
technique
for
documenting
change
in
before-and-after
sets
of
satellite
images.
The
technique
can
be
used
for
any
set
of
time-series
images
that
are
spatially
registered
to
show
the
exact
same
area
at
the
same
scale.
In
the
chapter,
users
examine
three
Landsat
images
of
the
Pearl
River

This
chapter
describes
how
to
set
a
scale
and
measure
distances
and
areas
on
satellite
images.
Using
ImageJ,
a
freely
available
image
analysis
program
that
runs
on
most
operating
systems,
users
set
the
spatial
calibration
of
an
image,
then
select
and
measure
distances
and
areas
on
it.
The
measurement
results
are
reported
in
real-world
units.
The
