Remote Sensing Applications in Agricultural, Earth and Environmental Sciences
This special issue belongs to the section “Earth Sciences“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in remote sensing technology have improved the detection and mapping of features on the Earth’s surface. These advances include refined sensor fidelity, which further elucidates processes that affect spatial phenomena when compared to earlier sensors. In addition, new developments in machine and deep learning approaches improve the prediction and accuracy of research outputs over conventional techniques. Such advances support research developments in many fields, opening new prospects in agriculture, Earth, and environmental sciences toward a more sustainable future.
Therefore, this issue calls for high-quality novel research and review articles on remote sensing applications in agriculture, Earth, and environmental sciences, focusing particularly on recent advances.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
