Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The theme of 20th International Conference on Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR 2024) is “GPR for better city”. GPR is a powerful technology that has the potential to greatly improve city infrastructure and planning. GPR utilizes electromagnetic waves to detect and map subsurface features, making it a valuable tool for various applications in urban environments. By providing accurate information about the depth and location of underground infrastructure, GPR can contribute to more efficient and cost-effective urban planning and development. GPR is also useful for assessing the condition of city infrastructure and assisting in identifying potential sinkholes or unstable ground conditions and geological and geotechnical investigations, which are crucial for allowing better decision making during urban development projects.

The topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Data processing and analysis;
  • Security;
  • Environment and agriculture;
  • Modeling and inversion;
  • Archeology and historical buildings;
  • Geological applications;
  • Civil engineering and Geotechnical application;
  • Planetary Sciences;
  • City utility application;
  • NDT.

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.
