Slope Stability Monitoring and Investigation Using Remote Sensing Techniques

Dear Colleagues,

In this Special Issue, we offer you the opportunity to contribute with high-quality original research articles and reviews on the use of remote sensing data and technologies to monitor and investigate slope instabilities. The aim is to provide readers with an overview that integrates remote sensing data from satellite, drones, and ground-based systems in geomorphological, engineering, geological, and geotechnical engineering working practices. Given your expertise and work in this field, we think you could make an excellent contribution to this Special Issue and we would like to invite you to submit one or more manuscripts to be published in this Special Issue of Remote Sensing. These include, but are not limited to the following topics: development, validation and implementation of remote sensing data processing methods and applications of remote sensing to slope movements on natural slopes (e.g., landslides) and on man-made slopes (e.g., slopes in open pit mines, tailings dams, etc.). Remote sensing technologies relevant to this Special Issue include satellite and ground-based InSAR, Digital Correlation Imaging, Photogrammetric techniques from satellite, airborne and drone-based sensors, laser scanning techniques, etc.

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.
