Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Geomatics can be used in all domains in which the positioning of a simple or complex element plays a central role; this problem is solved by implementing algorithms of analytical modelling and rigorous statistical methods to various types of data to estimation, in addition to finding position, precision, and accuracy, depending on the scale of its representation. The research activity research also takes technological development into account, with consequent theoretical–analytical disciplinary development. The geomatic results obtained have implications within the discipline itself (such as geodesy, global reference systems, and networks of permanent stations) or constitute crucial support for many multi-disciplinary analyses. Geomatic surveying is carried out with terrestrial, marine, airborne, and space-based sensors using GNSS, inertial, topographic laser scanning, photogrammetric, and remote sensing sensors. 

After the excellent results of the first edition of the Special Issue “Remote Sensing in Geomatics” (with 20 papers submitted, 12 of which were accepted and published, constituting a 60% acceptance), a new version is proposed.

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.

Degradation and desertification represent serious threats, as they present severe environmental and socio-economic consequences, demanding immediate action. Although a recognized methodology for assessing degradation and desertification is missing, remote sensing has been recognized as a powerful support for its accessibility and efficacy. The aim of this study is to examine the application of remote sensing for assessing land and soil degradation and desertification. A total of 278 research papers retrieved from Scopus/Web of Science database and published over the past decade have been analyzed. From the analysis of scientific publications, a rising interest for these topics and a dominance of research from China has been registered. Established satellite data, Landsat, and MODIS, despite limitations in accuracy and resolution, remain popular due to easy access. This restricts research to broader scales and limits practical applications like land management. The prevalent use of vegetation indexes, while convenient, can be misleading due to their indirect connection to soil health. Consequently, vegetation-based models may not fully capture the complexities involved. To improve understanding, the study suggests a shift towards multi-indexes models and a move away from relying solely on readily available data products. Moreover, the application of data fusion methods could provide a more holistic view. Full article
