Journal of Geodetic Science

Aims & Scope

Journal of Geodetic Science is a peer-reviewed, electronic-only journal that publishes original, high-quality research on topics broadly related to Geodesy.

The journal focuses on theoretical and application papers.

The aim of the Journal is to become a premier source of knowledge and a worldwide-recognized platform of exchange for scientists of different disciplinary origins and backgrounds (e.g., Surveyors, Geodesists and Geophysicists).

The journal publishes geodetic research from a broad range of topics and approaches including Geodetic Networks, Deformation analysis, Adjustment theory and application of mathematical statistics, Satellite Geodesy, Physical Geodesy, Geodynamics, Geometric Geodesy, (see the scope listed below for more).

However, we will accept both theoretical and empirical contributions in all subfields of Geodesy as long as they contribute in a broad sense to the core theme.

The scope includes, but is not restricted to: - Surveying Engineering - Geodetic Networks - Deformation Analysis - Adjustment Theory and Mathematical Geodesy - Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) - Inertial Geodesy - Geoid determination and height systems - Marine Geodesy and Satellite Altimetry - Satellite Gravimetry - Geometric Geodesy - Numerical methods and software developments in Geodesy - Geodynamics - Geophysical Geodesy
