Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Land deformation could be result from a geo-hazard event or can serve as an early warning sign for an upcoming catastrophic landslide or subsidence. It is a location-based phenomenon that possesses temporal variation as well. The deformed land causes damage to engineering structures, and the examination of their health condition is also a challenging task after any major hazard event. GIS, free satellite images, and radar data, as well as drone deployment, make the spatial technology not just easy to access but also popular. Deformation patterns or trends could be established by machine learning, and thus the failing engineering structure can be precisely located in a very short time after the event. Any studies on methods or technology that are related to this topic are highly welcome to be submitted to this Special Issue, and case reports are also welcome.

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.
