Sustainable Applications of Remote Sensing and Geospatial Information Systems to Earth Observations
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sustainable applications of remote sensing and geospatial information system for Earth observation have become more essential in understanding the geological, physical, ecological, hydrological and environmental characteristics of Earth surfaces. Original research articles and literature review papers addressing sustainable applications in the remote sensing and geospatial technologies, which include geospatial information sensing (GIS), remote sensing (RS), photogrammetry and global positioning system (GPS), will be considered for the publication in this Special Issue. The objectives of this Special Issue are to create a multidisciplinary forum of discussion on recent advances in the fields of remote sensing and geospatial information system for their sustainable applications and to find new applications to geology, biology, ecology, hydrology, engineering, and so on.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Sustainable sensor design and platforms development
- Sustainable multi-sensor system design and onboard processing
- Advances in sensors for sustainable applications of remote sensing
- Multi-sensor integration in sustainability and management
- Sustainability in multiplatform remote sensing
- Geospatial data models in sustainability and management
- Spatial big data analysis in sustainability and management
- Sustainable applications of position and localization systems, algorithm and techniques
- Sustainable applications and innovative of geoinformation sensor techniques
- Sustainable applications in hyperspectral remote sensing
- Sustainable application in laser scanning sensors
- Sustainability in image processing algorithm and systems
- Sustainability in Geoinformation extraction and data mining
- Sustainable spatiotemporal analysis in RS and GIS

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. Sustainability 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 2400 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.
