The book provides detailed coverage of techniques used to extract these features from satellite data: : Roads, driveways, sidewalks, and parking lots

: Increases in impervious cover lead to higher volume, duration, and intensity of storm runoff. artificial neural networks (ANNs)

The text identifies several critical "proper features" and themes associated with impervious surfaces: :

: Acts as a primary indicator of the extent and intensity of urban growth.

: Linear spectral unmixing, artificial neural networks (ANNs), and classification and regression trees (CART).
