The Remote Sensing Society of Japan (RSSJ) is Now an Affiliated Society Member of Remote Sensing

As of April 2019, Remote Sensing is affiliated to The Remote Sensing Society of Japan (RSSJ). As part of this collaboration, all members of RSSJ enjoy a discount on the article processing charges (APC) when submitting articles to Remote Sensing.

The Remote Sensing Society of Japan (RSSJ) was established in 1981 with the aim of liaising and collaborating on remote sensing research and contributing to the development and generalization of its science and technology. The activities of RSSJ include a wide range of fields, such as environmental monitoring, weather, ocean, ecology, geography, surveying, geology, disaster prevention, resource exploration, agriculture and forestry, fishery, civil engineering, construction, space development, and administration, among others. Hundreds of studies are currently underway across these disciplines. In recent years, high observation frequency weather observation by Himawari, increases in freely available satellite data such as Landsat, and the wide application of drones have made remote sensing an increasingly familiar technology and discipline.

RSSJ is a professional organization whose functions are highly relevant to the scope of Remote Sensing. We look forward to collaborating with RSSJ and publishing state-of-the-art research from its members in this field.
