Topic Libraries

This section collects the subject branches that are best browsed as coherent libraries rather than forced into the main staircase of the core book. They are not minor side material. They are substantial branches of the wider project.

Observation

Remote Sensing Library

Orbits, GPS, sensing geometry, radar, LiDAR, thermal methods, gravity, and retrieval logic form a coherent observation branch.

Cold Systems

Cryosphere and Mountain Systems

Snow, glaciers, permafrost, alpine hydrology, and mountain hazards form a distinct field-focused branch of the project.

Human Systems

Economic Geography and Infrastructure

Trade, transport, pipelines, pricing, and energy systems belong together as a strong human-systems branch beyond the gateway chapters in the core book.

Observation Support

Orbits, GPS, and Sensing Geometry

Some Earth observation foundations still live inside Environmental Systems for now, but they function as part of the wider remote sensing library.
