Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Agriculture is very complex system, in which various kinds of objects should be observed, such as plants, field emvironment, field machinery, farm workers, etc. often under uncotrolled situations, to achieve quality control of farm products. To acquire high quality farm products or to efficiently acquire those, automatic measurement of the objects in the filed is required, which is called pricise agriculture, or smart agriculture. Computer vision, or machine vision, which has become a very powerful tool for observing various objects in agricultural activities, plays important roles in smart agriculture, or precise agriculture. In this special issue, we are looking forward to submissions of practical and sophisticated computer vision methodology for precise agriculture, or smart agriculture, from researchers/developpers of related research fields.
The topics are shown in the below, but not limited to those.
Prof. Rin-ichiro Taniguchi
Dr. Hideaki Uchiyama

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Imaging is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
