摘要：Land cover and land use changes associated with urbanization are important drivers of local geological, hydrological, ecological, and climatic change. Quantification and monitoring of these changes in 100 global urban centres are part of the mission of the ASTER instrument on board the NASA Terra satellite, and comprise the fundamental research objective of the Urban Environmental Monitoring (UEM) Program at Arizona State University. Data have been acquired for the majority of the target urban centres and are used to compare landscape fragmentation patterns on the basis of land cover classifications at both local and global scales. Despite the promising and exciting possibilities presented by new and fast-developing sensors and technologies we still perceive a gap between the generally academic and research-focused spectrum of results offered by the "urban remote sensing' community and the application of these data and products by the local governmental bodies of urban cities and regions. In a recently organized workshop with partners from six urban regions all over the world we tried to determine what the important questions are, and how we can use our data and scientific skills to help answer them
