Associate Prof. Dr. Rustam B. Rustamov was born in May 25, 1955 Ali-Bayramli, Azerbaijan. He is an independent expert on space science and technology. In the past he was in charging of the Azerbaijan National Aerospace Agency activities as an Acting Director General. Rustam B. Rustamov has mainly specialized in space instrumentation and remote sensing and GIS technology. He has graduated Ph D at the Russian Physical-Technical Institute (S. Petersburg). Rustam B. Rustamov was invited for the work at the European Space Agency within the Framework of the United Nations Program on Space Applications at the European Space Research and Technology Center, The Netherlands. Rustam B. Rustamov has appointed for the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs Action Teams (member, Vienna, Austria), United Nations Economical and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (national focal point, Thailand), International Astronautical Federation (Federation’s contact, France), Resent Advances in Space Technologies International Conference Program Committee (member, Turkey). He is an author of 11 books published by the Europe and United States famous publishers and more than 100 scientific papers. This book is based on the research results of the authors in the area of integration with related data existing in literature. The main aim of this book is to demonstrate the process of data collection and processing for management. This book describes suitability and how space technology advances could be used and oriented as an influential instrument in management. Within the framework of this book, the content has reflected general aspects of space technology applications. Remote sensing methods and GIS technology have been used as an instrument of data collection and processing depending on requirements of the task expected to be solved and implemented within the management process. This book presents space technology applications in different disciplines of engineering and the engineering management process.Target Audience:1.International and local entities engaged to the space technology application and scientific research activities;2.International Organizations: United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, International Astronautical Federation, European Space Agency entities;3.An organizations who are interested on data collection with use of advances of high technology, particularly space technology;4.Managers of organizations, for instance companies providing engineering services and construction works, where required execution of space technology application in engineering management;5.People or specialists who are involved on working in space technology application in a large areas of Earth monitoring and study.
