Selected Papers from Agro-Geoinformatics 2018

Dear Colleagues,

Agro-geoinformation is critical for research and decision making in agricultural sustainability, food security, environmental health, bioenergy, natural resource conservation, land use management, carbon accounting, global climate change, public health, agricultural commodity trading, rural economy, education, etc. Remote sensing is one of the main methods to collect agro-geoinformation and is the cornerstone in agro-geoinformatics research and applications. With the rapid advances in space-born, air-born, close-range and on-the-go remote sensing platforms, innovative sensors, information extraction algorithms, and data processing technologies, the agro-geoinformatic research and applications are booming in recent years, especially in the areas of handling digital agro-geoinformation, such as collecting (including in situ and remote sensing), processing, storing, archiving, preserving, retrieving, transmitting, accessing, visualizing, analyzing, synthesizing, presenting, modeling with, and disseminating agro-geoinformation.

This Special Issue will provide a venue for publishing papers describing innovative agro-geoinformatic research and applications. We welcome submissions that describe state of the art in all aspects of agro-geoinformatic research and application, including, but not limited to:

• Research on agro-geoinformatic theory, methodology and practice
• Quantitative agricultural remote sensing
• Agricultural monitoring and management with geoinformatics
• Precision agriculture
• Agricultural land use and land cover change
• Agricultural big data processing and cloud computing
• Data assimilation with remotely sensed information
• Spatial data uncertainty analysis
• Agro-geoinformatic system
• Agro-geoinformatic applications

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.
