Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for future research directions and describes possible research applications.
Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and must receive positive feedback from the reviewers.
Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world. Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly interesting to readers, or important in the respective research area. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.

I am writing to you with great pleasure that the Remote Sensing Handbook (Three Volume Set) is now published!. In every way, you will find this handbook unique, creative, and a path breaking effort of 300+ leading remote sensing scientists of the world. Such excellent work was only possible due to terrific effort from authors, editors, publishers, printers, and many, many others. It is a huge effort and it is hard to believe it is finally here and well worth the effort.
Ultimately we have a comprehensive coverage of all remote sensing topics, written by the best in the field. The handbook comprises 82 Chapters, about 2200 pages, from 300+ authors, every page printed in color and bound in hard copy. I can easily say that the three volumes constitute what every remote sensing student; professor, scientist, and professional practitioners and experts would need as a constant reference.
