Aims & Scope

Remote Sensing (ISSN 2072-4292) publishes regular research papers, reviews, letters and communications covering all aspects of remote sensing science, from sensor design, validation / calibration, to its application in geosciences, environmental sciences, ecology and civil engineering.

Our aim is to publish novel / improved methods / approaches and / or algorithms of remote sensing to benefit the community, open to everyone in need of them.

There is no restriction on the length of the papers or colors used.

The method / approach must be presented in detail so that the results can be reproduced.

There are, in addition, three unique features of this Journal: Manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas are welcome Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material We also accept manuscripts communicating to a broader audience with regard to research projects financed with public funds Scope: -Multi-spectral and hyperspectral remote sensing- Active and passive microwave remote sensing- Lidar and laser scanning- Geometric reconstruction- Physical modeling and signatures- Change detection- Image processing and pattern recognition- Data fusion and data assimilation- Dedicated satellite missions- Operational processing facilities- Spaceborne, airborne and terrestrial platforms- Remote sensing applications.
