Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the continuous advancement of instrument science and sensor technology, spatiotemporal data are demonstrating more diverse types, more complex acquisition environments, and a dramatic increase in data volume. For the field of surveying and mapping, which emphasizes precision and reliability, the selection and improvement of algorithms have become particularly critical. The current challenges include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) data from different sources exhibit significant differences in format, accuracy, spatiotemporal resolution, physical meaning, and mathematical relationships, which poses the challenge of effectively fusing multi-source heterogeneous spatiotemporal data; (2) faced with massive data, traditional algorithms struggle to meet real-time demands, thereby highlighting the need for improvements in processing speed; (3) under extreme or harsh conditions, the data obtained is limited in quantity and uneven in quality, making the challenge of reliably extracting and interpreting necessary information particularly daunting; (4) traditional algorithms often require a significant manual intervention to process complex data, and how to enhance the intelligence level of data processing should be explored.
We invite high-quality, original research and review articles that delve into the latest advancements in spatiotemporal algorithms, their practical applications, and enhancements to current methodologies. We are particularly eager to receive contributions that showcase the implementation of these techniques in addressing complex systems across diverse fields.

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. Algorithms 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 1600 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.
