Techniques and Science Exploitations for Earth Observation and Planetary Exploration

Dear Colleagues,

Over the last 50 years, our knowledge of the Earth and planets within our solar system has hugely increased as a direct result of satellite missions sent to space to act as our eyes. Many novel scientific discoveries and engineering breakthroughs benefit from the availability of the vast volume of spaceborne data, but on the other hand, they are hugely underexploited due to the limitation of processing capacity of computing-based data handling and interpretations.

We would like to invite you to submit articles relating to previous and new satellite missions, new science results, and novel methods and/or their applications for Earth observation and planetary exploration. We seek original research covering all aspects of satellite missions, Earth observation, planetary science, planetary remote sensing, geographic information system science, new techniques, and novel applications of satellite data processing techniques.

We look forward to receiving your submissions, which will be vigorously triaged and reviewed within a much shorter turnaround time than most current journals in this field.
