Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The recent growing availability of satellite remote sensing imagery is becoming increasingly important as more and more satellite imagery is made available from various sensors, even for free, and new groups of satellites are put into orbit to allow global analyses. The same applications are continuously expanding: today they enable land cover and land use mapping (specifically, detection of urbanization, also at global level, monitoring of cultivated land in order to detect water stress and desertification, and in order to direct crop operations); they also are employed for detecting and monitoring air, land and sea pollution, and for fighting forest wildfires.
The Previous Special Issue “Earth Observation Using Satellite Global Images of Remote Sensing” was a great success. We are pleased to invite you to contribute to new Special Issue in subjects related to the journal scope. This Special Issue also aims to explore the recent progresses of in the field of satellite Remote Sensing and possible further developments.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following:
- Image analysis applications to remote sensing;
- Image segmentation;
- Image classification;
- Image edge detection;
- Change detection;
- Image processing and pattern recognition;
- Mathematical morphology;
- Object Based Image Analysis;
- Feature extraction;
- Remote sensing applications;
- Microwave Remote Sensing;
- SAR.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. 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.
