Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Remote and proximal sensing are the two most common techniques concerning the acquisition of information about an object or any phenomenon without physical contact with the object. Remote sensing is widely tied to the use of satellite, airborne or UAV platforms using multi- or hyperspectral imagery. In terms of proximal sensing, the sensor is close to the object and is installed on platforms ranging from handheld, fixed installations, or robotics and tractor-embedded sensors. The types of sensors range from simple RGB or grey-level cameras to multispectral and hyperspectral high-resolution imaging systems or even thermographic cameras.
Associated with plant growth conditions and phenotyping techniques, remote and proximal sensing are able to provide information on nutrient deficiency, biotic stress such as pests and diseases as well as abiotic stresses, allowing precision agriculture and viticulture practices.
For this Special Issue, we welcome the submission of papers on both fundamental and applied research relating on Remote and Proximal Sensing for Precision Agriculture and Viticulture, combining spectral, spatial and temporal information based on multi- and hyperspectral imagery with the capabilities of management-oriented crop simulation models. We also invite papers dedicated to new sensors that can be used in agriculture, aiming at better management of crops, and methods for better crop management and a more respectful treatment of the environment.
This is the second edition of this Special Issue series. For more information on the first edition, please see: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/remotesensing/special_issues/Proximal_Sensing_for_Agriculture

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.
