Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Underground monitoring and the related field of data analytics are emerging research areas that stand at the intersection of several disciplines, such as theoretical methods, Internet-of-Things-based sensors, big data, and artificial intelligence. As geotechnical monitoring is so challenging and related data are consistently explosive, smart analytics methods are required to fully exploit data and information obtained from monitoring studies. This Special Issue aims to bring together researchers, academicians, and sector employees from different fields and disciplines to exchange information on research, ideas, and findings concerning monitoring technologies and data analytics in geotechnics. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Geotechnical investigation using smart sensing technologies;
- Smart sensors for underground monitoring;
- Testing instruments in underground space;
- Underground communication systems;
- AI-based data analytics in geotechnics.

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
