You are invited to submit abstracts for presentations in this special paper session. Aspects considered include, but not limited to:   Remotely sensed data requirements for urban landscape characterization; Digital image processing procedures for deriving accurate and consistent information on urban attributes from remotely sensed data; Analytical techniques and methodologies for deriving indicators of social and economic conditions that prevail within urban landscape;   Urban landscape change monitoring and mapping case studies; Impacts of urbanization upon ecological and social environments; Urban landscape simulation and predictive modeling based on remotely sensed data; Interface between remote sensing/GIS and urban geography; and Urban remote sensing education.
