Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Precise Point Positioning (PPP) is a technique that allows users to achieve centimetre- and millimetre-level positioning accuracy based on a single GNSS receiver. This is of central importance for many applications (i.e., plate tectonics, surface loading, earthquake monitoring) and also has a massive uptick in interest across multiple industries (i.e., surveying, precise agriculture, autonomous vehicles/drones, low-cost and dual-frequency chipsets for the mass-market, smartphone). Currently, PPP is typically combined with ambiguity resolution or RTK (Real Time Kinematic) technique and evolved to PPP-AR and PPP-RTK. To support this, Galileo and BDS satellite systems start the provisioning of HAS (high-accuracy service) and PPP-B2b service, respectively.
Multi-GNSS, multi-frequency, and multi-signal adopt more measurements and enable more new options in the linear combination than using the legacy dual-frequency measurements in PPP. On the other hand, this also makes it more challenging to handle different types of biases in ambiguity resolution. This Special Issue aims to discuss advances in using Multi-GNSS, multi-frequency, and multi-signal in PPP/PPP-AR/PPP-RTK, as well as in the computation of atmospheric parameters. New updates and assessments of HAS, PPP-B2b, or other services in smartphone, ground station, and low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite positioning are welcome, too.

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).
