| Résumé : |
The International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation publishes original papers that apply earth observation data to the inventory and management of natural resources and the environment. In this context, earth observation data are normally those acquired from remote sensing platforms such as satellites and aircraft, complemented and supplemented by surface and subsurface measurements and mapping. Natural resources include forests, agricultural land, soils, water resources, mineral deposits, and land itself as a foundation for infrastructure and housing. Environmental issues include biodiversity, land degradation, industrial pollution and natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods and landslides. The focus, which can be either conceptual or data driven, includes all major themes in geoinformation, like capturing, databasing, visualization and interpretation of data, but also issues of data quality and spatial uncertainty. Since the scope is large, contributions should be of the highest quality, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Some will convey important recommendations for environmental management and governance. Contributions that expand existing methodology in image and point cloud processing, geospatial mapping, and big spatiotemporal data analytics using GeoAI are welcome. We encourage 'Discussion' articles that stimulate dialogue between earth observation studies and managers in a statistically sound way, 'Review' articles that provide an overview of scientific developments in a particular scientific domain in recent years, and 'Letter' articles that provide rapid communications on the state-of-the-art methods and novel applications of geospatial data. |
