Geomatica

Affiliated with the Canadian Institute of Geomatics

Geomatica is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed open access journal which aims to cover all aspects of geomatic sciences, including earth observations, geographic information sciences (GIS), geodesy and global positioning system (GPS), surveying and mapping, global navigation satellite system (GNSS), cadaster and law, hydrography, remote sensing, and photogrammetry. The Journal is committed to publishing innovative, quality research from a wide variety of perspectives and diverse data. Theoretical, algorithmic, experimental, and methodological aspects which contribute to the geomatic sciences and allied technologies (e.g., GeoAI), as well as novel applications to the atmosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, terrestrial domains at global to local scales, and within specific niche areas, are also within the scope of Geomatica. The Journal welcomes contributions on geomatics pedagogy, as well as submissions from the social sciences and humanities that leverage geospatial information. The Journal aims to be a communication channel for researchers, scientists, and professionals across the world.

The Journal welcomes four types of contributions:

• Original Research Articles should describe important, significant new results or methods that will advance geomatics or any discipline(s) that uses geospatial information.

• Review Articles should provide a thorough review of the current state-of-the-art of an important subject in geomatics, by providing insights and perspectives on the trends, with a synthesis of previous work beyond literature compilation or bibliometric studies.

• Short Communications are intended to publish significant new techniques, data, or results in a timely manner where expansion to a full-length paper (e.g., 4000 words), may cause a delay in their availability to the research or user community.

• Tutorial papers are intended to publish new techniques in the form of tutorial articles in the field/sub-field.
