Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our dynamic earth system has taught us that change is the only constant. Both natural causes and human interventions are changing the earth’s environment. Decades of multi-source geospatial data allow us to map, monitor, analyze, and visualize these changes at local to global scales. Advances in sensors and platforms have provided the flexibility to tailor the data collection to meet the application needs of the users. Easier access to geospatial data through open-source resources and crowd sourcing has contributed to rapid advances in our ability to study change and in turn guide decisions and policies to slow down or potentially reverse some of these changes.
This Special Issue is dedicated to capturing advances in the rapidly growing area of geospatial data analysis for change detection. Changes in land, water, air, or the human dimension of the Earth system, occurring at centimeter to global scales, within minutes or decadal time scales, are all important as they contribute to the understanding of our dynamic planet. The Special Issue also welcomes contributions that focus on the techniques of integrated data analysis and effective visualization of complex changes that help to communicate the trends and impacts of change.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Geomatics.

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.
