Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Spectral imaging technology is a combination of imaging and spectral detection technology, which can obtain spectral information on any pixel of the target. According to the spectral resolution, spectral imaging technologies include multi-spectral imaging and hyper-spectral imaging. According to the spectral range, they include ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectral imaging. According to the optical system, they include scanning, snapshot, and compressed sensing. Advanced spectral imaging technologies are fundamental tools for the development of many fields. They are extensively applied in fields such as biology, geography, agriculture, medical treatment, military, printing industry, aerospace, etc. Specifically, spectral information can be utilized for geological detection, material classification, component analysis, remote sensing imaging, color reproduction, and so on. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to present advanced spectral imaging technologies and applications, including new methods and experimental results from theoretical research to application.
This Special Issue focuses on, but is not limited to, ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectral imaging technologies, multi-spectral and hyper-spectral imaging, applications in characterization, detection, classification, remote sensing, and color reproduction, as well as other issues in spectral imaging and applications.

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. Applied Sciences 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.
