Remote Sensing Interpretation Systematic Engineering for Natural Resources Monitoring and Management

Dear Colleagues,

Remote sensing technology is indispensable for high level land use, land management, and sustainable infrastructure design. In recent years, multi-source and multi-temporal remote sensing big data, from optical to microwave, from low to very high spatial resolution, from multispectral to hyperspectral, and LiDAR data are available and can be applied for broader land management. Meanwhile, with the development of artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing techniques, efficient and intelligent remote sensing image interpretation in high level land use, land management, and sustainable infrastructure design has been a systematically engineered and these issues are currently faced with various challenges in terms of data, information, knowledge, modeling, and computing power. Such challenges can be tackled with innovations in image interpretation, information/feature extraction, modeling techniques, and applications to problems towards understanding our environment.

Under such circumstances, this Special Issue aims at providing knowledge, methodologies, and approaches for scientific research and decision support systems related to intelligent remote sensing image interpretation in land use, land management, and sustainable infrastructure design.

We invite contributions from colleagues who wish to innovate the discipline of remote sensing for land use, land management, and sustainable infrastructure design.

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-anonymized 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.
