Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
LiDAR (Light detection and ranging) technology has revolutionized the field of remote sensing and mapping by providing high-resolution, three-dimensional data of the Earth's surface. Its applications span various domains, including forestry, agriculture, urban planning, geology, and environmental monitoring. This Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research and advancements in the application of LiDAR remote sensing and mapping. Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and detailed case studies that highlight the transformative impact of LiDAR technology.

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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
