Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing for Survey and 3D Reconstruction of Historical Built Landscapes

Dear Colleagues,

The need to accurately document the historical and infrastructural built landscape that distinguishes our territories is more relevant than ever, especially when it is exposed to multi-hazard factors, both natural and anthropic, that could lead to the loss of this heritage.

The possibilities that derive from the application of ICT to the analysis of the built landscape range from integrated digital surveying to the creation of complex three-dimensional information systems, from remote sensing to the development of digital twins. All these tools, if properly integrated, offer the possibility to acquire, analyse and manage data with a view to monitoring the state of conservation of the artefacts and infrastructures, as well as planning any maintenance interventions and their correct fruition.

This Special Issue aims to investigate the most current trends, experiences and best practices related to the survey, documentation and 3D reconstruction of the built heritage and historical infrastructures, with particular attention to the future directions that such technologies offer.

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.
