Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Environmental Engineering is the study of applying science and technology to maintain a sustainable and beneficial relationship between various human activities and the global environment. It covers a wide range of scales, including architectural, urban, regional, and global. The research areas include the following: architectural environmental engineering, which approaches the creation of human and environmentally friendly living spaces from both architectural technology and environmental studies; urban environmental engineering, which approaches the impact of human economic activities on the environment, waste and recycling, and other aspects of urban life from both comfort, health, and environmental preservation perspectives; and global environmental engineering, focusing on air and water cycles on a global scale to elucidate the mechanisms of pollution and disasters.
Recently, improving the sophistication of environmental engineering research has become an urgent issue, such as through the use of high-resolution and high-speed monitoring, analysis and inference, evaluation and visualization, and collaboration with computer science and information and communication technology, which is indispensable. Therefore, this Special Issue solicits and discusses a wide range of academic research results related to environmental engineering, using each or a combination of several emerging technologies: sensors, deep learning, and virtual and augmented reality.

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.
