Large Infrastructure Monitoring Using Remote Sensing

Dear Colleagues,

Large infrastructure monitoring by remote sensing has recently become more and more attractive for both economic and security reasons. Monitoring infrastructure with no incorporated deformation sensors (e.g., old-generation water-dams for which regulations did not impose suitable monitoring capabilities) are usually done by regular in situ topographic surveys. However, these surveys cannot be performed very often, and complimentary methods are desirable. A non-intrusive way to monitor such a structure is based on processing remotely sensed data acquired with spaceborne or airborne sensors.

The main aim of this Special Issue is to present the most recent developments in remotely sensed data processing and analysis to monitor a large infrastructure. Prospective authors are welcomed to submit both theory-oriented papers and case study applications, provided that the proposed results advocate the use of remotely sensed data as a new surveying technique in civil engineering.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
