Multi-Sensor Fusion Technology in Remote Sensing: Datasets, Algorithms and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Multi-sensor fusion technology is commonly used in various real-world applications, such as remote sensing, military, robotics, and autonomous driving. Extensive research has been dedicated to the effective use of intelligent and advanced multi-sensor fusion methods for accurate monitoring, complete information acquisition, and optimal decision-making. However, the multi-sensor fusion methods suffer from three main challenges: (1) the automatic calibration of sensors for bringing their readings into a common coordinate frame, (2) the feature extraction from various types of sensory data, and (3) the selection of a suitable fusion level.

The aim of this Special Issue is to give the opportunity to explore these challenges in multi-sensor fusion for remote sensing. The topics in the Special Issue include, but are not limited to, multi-sensor, multi-source, and multi-process information fusion. Articles are expected to emphasize one or more of three facets: data, architectures, and algorithms. The applications of various multi-sensor fusion technologies and of various systems are also welcome.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Remote Sensing 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 2700 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.
