Official Publication of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS)The ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (P&RS) is the official journal of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS). The Journal provides a channel of communication for scientists and professionals in all countries working in the many disciplines that employ photogrammetry, remote sensing, spatial information systems, computer vision, and related fields. The Journal is designed to serve as a source reference and archive of advancements in these disciplines.The P&RS objective is to publish high quality, peer-reviewed, preferably previously unpublished papers of a scientific/research, technological development or application/practica... nature. P&RS will publish papers, including those based on ISPRS meeting presentations*, which are regarded as significant contributions in the above-mentioned fields. We especially encourage papers: of broad scientific interest; on innovative applications, particularly in new fields; of an interdisciplinary nature; on topics that have not been dealt with (or to a small degree) by P&RS or related journals; and on topics related to new possible scientific/professio... directions. Preferably, theoretical papers should include applications, and papers dealing with systems and applications should include theoretical background.The scope of the journal is extensive and covers sensors, theory and algorithms, systems, experiments, developments and applications. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:Sensors• Airborne and spaceborne multispectral and hyperspectral imaging systems • Airborne and terrestrial cameras • Airborne, terrestrial and mobile laser scanning • Range imaging • Active and passive imaging sensor characterisation • Sensor calibration and standardisation • Geosensor networks • Internet of ThingsMethods and procedures• Spatial data handling technologies • Integrated sensor calibration and orientation • Surface and object reconstruction, modelling and interpretation • GIS data modelling, representation and structures • Database systems • Mapping from imagery • Visualisation, animation and virtual reality • Physical measurements and spectral signatures • Point cloud processing • Extraction of geometric and semantic information from SAR • SAR Interferometry • Image classification algorithms • Image segmentation and GEOBIA • Image time series analysis • Hyperspectral data analysis • Big image data analysis • Crowd sourcing • Feature extractionApplicatio... and products• 3D urban GIS • Close-range imaging and metrology • Architectural & archaeological photogrammetry • Determination of forest metrics • Medical image analysis and biometry • Resource and environmental modelling • Global monitoring and assessment • Thematic applications • DTM and orthoimage generation • Location based servicesSubmitted articles may be:• Papers (detailed discussions involving new research, technological developments or applications); • Review Papers (extensive state-of-the-art surveys of established or emerging topics or application areas); or • Contributions for special Journal columns (letters to the Editor about the journal or to authors commenting on previously published papers; new useful ideas and brief pertinent comments of a technical nature; editorials, mainly after an invitation by the Editorial Advisory Board).NOTE: All articles, except correspondence, will be peer-reviewed and should be of high scientific level.* Journal paper submissions based on past conference publications are only allowed if the submitted manuscript is significantly extended or otherwise enhanced. That is, the journal article will only be considered if more extensive experiments and discussion are presented (even if the same methods are used) and/or the methods have been significantly improved and/or advanced (even if the same datasets have been used). The burden of explicitly describing the differences between these publications rests with the author(s). In case of a strong overlap with another publication, the manuscript should be rejected.P&RS issues may be devoted to specific scientific topics of high or increasing importance (Theme Issues), especially in relation to one or more ISPRS Working Groups, as well as to special events, geographic regions, professional activities etc. The number and topics of Theme Issues will be such that the P&RS still remains of interest to the majority of its subscribers.For more details on the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, visit http://www.isprs.org...

International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation

ISSN: 1569-8432
5 Year impact factor: 7.5
Impact factor: 7.6

The International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation publishes original papers that apply earth observation data to the inventory and management of natural resources and the environment. In this context, earth observation data are normally those acquired from remote sensing platforms such as satellites and aircraft, complemented and supplemented by surface and subsurface measurements and mapping. Natural resources include forests, agricultural land, soils, water resources, mineral deposits, and land itself as a foundation for infrastructure and housing. Environmental issues include biodiversity, land degradation, industrial pollution and natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods and landslides. The focus, which can be either conceptual or data driven, includes all major themes in geoinformation, like capturing, databasing, visualization and interpretation of data, but also issues of data quality and spatial uncertainty.Since the scope is large, contributions should be of the highest quality, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Some will convey important recommendations for environmental management and governance. Contributions that expand existing methodology in image and point cloud processing, geospatial mapping, and big spatiotemporal data analytics using GeoAI are welcome. The journal encourages 'Discussion' articles that stimulate dialogue between earth observation studies and managers in a statistically sound way, 'Review' articles that provide an overview of scientific developments in a particular scientific domain in recent years, and 'Letter' articles that provide rapid communications on the state-of-the-art methods and novel applications of geospatial data.

Spatial Statistics

ISSN: 2211-6753
5 Year impact factor: 2.1
Impact factor: 2.1

Spatial Statistics publishes articles on the theory and application of spatial and spatio-temporal statistics. It favours manuscripts that present theory generated by new applications, or in which new theory is applied to an important practical case. A purely theoretical study will only rarely be accepted. Pure case studies and algorithms without methodological development are not acceptable for publication.Spatial Statistics concerns the quantitative analysis of spatial and spatio-temporal data, including their statistical dependencies, heterogeneity, accuracy and uncertainties. Methodology for spatial statistics is typically found in probability theory, stochastic modelling and mathematical statistics as well as in information and computer science. Spatial statistics is used in mapping, assessing spatial data quality, sampling design optimisation, modelling of spatial structures, and drawing of valid inference and causality from a limited set of spatio-temporal data. Application fields include:• The physical domains, e.g. environment, climate, agriculture, ecology, geosciences oceanography and remote sensing. • The social/economic domains, e.g. epidemiology, population characteristics, and disease mapping.Spatial Statistics encourages the submission of short communications and case studies in spatial statistics (i.e. manuscripts up to 3000 words presenting novel spatial statistical applications).Spatia... Statistics aims to publish reproducible science. Authors are encouraged to submit and publish data, procedures, models and methods that support your research publication. It provides facilities to interlink those with your published articles.Spatial Statistics has an open attitude towards the latest developments in data science, deep learning and geoAI, as long as a substantial statistical component is present.
