Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In an era of persistent land surface changes and rapidly increasing environmental hazards, advancements in environmental monitoring methods and applications are critical. In order to effectively characterize spatiotemporal patterns at various scales, studies must leverage numerous high and moderate spatial resolution remote sensing instruments that provide dense time series of data. Thus, advances in data, algorithms, and computing platforms are needed in order to efficiently characterize land cover changes. This is especially true of time-sensitive situations that require accurate, timely, and up-to date information for decision-making, such as in times of wildland fires, deforestation, agricultural monitoring, flood events, and land cover/land use change associated with land tenure or governmental policies.
In order to continuously monitor these and similar events, it is often necessary to combine disparate satellite data sources with ancillary data. After combining multiple data sources, geo-temporal gaps may persist as a result of satellite revisit time, atmospheric opacity, or other obstructions. Subsequently, additional novel data sources such as social media content, or other crowd-sourced data enable observations of obscured locations, especially in the aftermath of natural hazards. The combination of multiple datasets enables higher temporal resolution for timely observations, which in turn requires new techniques or platforms to optimize data handling and analysis.
These datasets often demonstrate significant computing demands that exceed the capabilities of the typical desktop computer. The availability of cloud computing platforms and resources such as Google Earth Engine (GEE), NASA Earth Exchange (NEX), Amazon AWS, and the Descartes Labs Platform enable analysis and monitoring at scales and depths that were previously difficult or impossible to attain.

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 papers will be 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 2400 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.
