Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to collect papers which focus on the most recent advances of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems/subsystems design and missions, data processing techniques, either related to interferometric SAR (InSAR) or to multitemporal change detection, and finally, concerning the wide range of possible application in the earth sciences domain and anthropogenic activities.
Thirty years after the first ever use of SAR data for surface displacement detection and measurements, we are still achieving great things. Today, SAR data and InSAR are widely used in earthquake studies, to investigate the overall seismic cycle (coseismic, post-seismic and interseismic movements); in volcanology, to measure pre-eruptive/sineruptive volcano deformations; in hydrology, to measure the effects of the exploitation of watertable, causing subsidence in urban areas and affecting buildings and manufactures; in structural engineering, to monitor critical infrastructures prone to natural disasters; in urban planning, to provide long term scenarios able to evaluate the effects of urbanization.
The abovementioned issues are not exhaustive, but represent a portion of possible topics we expect from the scientific community, to be included in this Special Issue.
Dr. Salvatore Stramondo

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.
