About the journal
The Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing (CJRS) is the official journal of the Canadian Remote Sensing Society (CRSS), a constituent society of the Canadian Aeronautics and Space Institute (CASI). CJRS is published six times per year by CASI. The Editorial Board invites the submission of new and unpublished Research Articles, Research Notes, Review Papers, and Technical Notes for publication in the Journal. Suggested topics include data acquisition, information processing methods, and applications. All manuscripts require favourable peer review prior to acceptance for publication. For regular issue Research Articles and Review Articles, we have a working goal of less than one year between initial submission and publication. For regular issue Research Notes and Technical Notes, we have a working goal of less than eight months between initial submission and publication. This requires timely and constructive response from both the reviewers and the author
Instructions to Authors
The Editorial Board invites the submission of Research Articles, Research Notes, Review Papers, and Technical Notes for publication in the Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing (CJRS).
Language
Manuscripts may be submitted and published in French or English. Abstracts of all papers are published in French and English.
Initial Manuscript Submission
The Initial Manuscript Submission must be made by electronic means, such as via e-mail, server download, or on disk, to the addresses that follow below. Authors must ensure that manuscripts and illustrations comply with the Style Notes outlined below.
Word, WordPerfect, RTF, or Portable Document Format (PDF) files with embedded figures are preferred. Please keep the file as small as possible (<1 Mb, ideally) to facilitate straightforward distribution to the reviewers via e-mail.
Peer Review Process
All submissions are subjected to peer review prior to publication. The editorial board reserves the right to select their own reviewers, but it is useful if authors provide a list of at least four specialists in the field of the paper who could serve as reviewers, and who are at arm抯 length from the work under review. Please provide their full address, including telephone number and e-mail address. The authors will be provided with a review package that includes the review decision, the Manuscript Review Forms, detailed comments provided by the reviewers, and the marked-up manuscript if available. The authors may be asked to revise and re-submit their manuscript along with a point-by-point response to all of the reviewer抯 comments.
2/8 Copyright
Once the manuscript is accepted for publication, Copyright shall be formally transferred to CASI. Further information and Copyright transfer forms are available from the Editor or from the CASI Web site. Failure to complete and return the necessary forms will result in a delay in publication of your manuscript. The authors are responsible for obtaining the required permissions to use any copyrighted material that appears in their manuscript. Submission of a manuscript for consideration for publication acknowledges that the authors have already obtained the necessary permissions.
Final Manuscript Submission
The Final Manuscript Submission (that is, once the manuscript has been formally accepted for publication) must include both soft and hardcopy versions of the manuscript. Authors must ensure that manuscripts and illustrations comply with the Style Notes outlined below.
Preparation of Softcopy Version
To facilitate the efficient and accurate production of the page proofs, please follow these general guidelines:
?The final version of the manuscript should be in an editable format (e.g., MS Word, WordPerfect, or RTF);
?Equations should be created in an editable format (e.g., MS Equation or MathType);
?Tables should be contained in the manuscript file and maintain an editable format (i.e., tables should not be converted to an image);
?Figure captions should be contained in the manuscript file in an editable format;
?Figure images must not be embedded in the Final Manuscript Submission. Figures must be submitted as separate files and prepared according to the Style Notes for illustrations listed below.
3/8 Page Proofs
A galley proof and copy-edited manuscript are sent via e-mail or fax to the corresponding author just prior to publication. Galley proofs must be checked very carefully, as they will not be proofread, and must be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Extensive corrections, additions, or deletions are not permitted at the proof stage.
Style Notes: Text
Authors must very carefully check the symbols, abbreviations, and technical terms for accuracy, consistency, and readability and ensure that manuscripts and illustrations meet the requirements outlined below.
Abbreviations, nomenclature, and symbols for units of measurements must conform to international recommendations and to the usage of this Journal. SI units (Syst鑝e international d抲nit閟) must be used or SI equivalents should be given. Abbreviations and contractions of the names of substances, procedures, etc., must be defined the first time they occur. They should be consistent in the text and figures.
Manuscripts must be double spaced with 1 inch margins all around. Pages must be numbered consecutively.
Title
The title should be brief. The title block must include
?the proposed paper type (i.e., Research Paper, Research Note, Review Paper, or Technical Note);
?the names and initials of the authors, written as they prefer;
?the names and addresses of the organizations with which the authors are associated;
?the telephone and fax numbers; and
?the e-mail addresses.
4/8 Abstract
An abstract that includes the main objectives and conclusions precedes each paper and must be
?100 to 200 words in length;
?in non-specialist language; and
?in French and English, if possible.
References should not be cited in the abstract.
Subheadings and Paragraph Numbering
Subheadings should be inserted at frequent intervals. Sections and paragraphs must not be numbered.
References
Each reference must be cited in the text, using the surnames of the authors and the year, for example, (Green, 1970) or Green and Brown (1981).
The reference list must be double-spaced and placed at the end of the text. References must be listed in alphabetical order according to the name of the first author and not numbered. All reference information must be written out in full, using no abbreviations beyond the authors?initials. References with the same first author are listed in the following order: (1) Papers with one author only are listed first in chronological order, beginning with the earliest paper. (2) Papers with dual authorship follow and are listed in alphabetical order by the last name of the second author. (3) Papers with three or more authors appear after the dual-authored papers and are arranged chronologically.

6/8 To direct readers to an entire Web site (but not to a specific document on the site), it is sufficient to give the address of the site in the text. No reference entry is needed.
Footnotes
Footnotes should only be used if they are essential. If footnotes are used, they must appear at the bottom of the appropriate page and must be numbered consecutively throughout the manuscript, indicated by superscript Arabic numbers, and kept as short as possible.
Equations
Equations must be clearly typed; triple-spacing should be used if superscripts and (or) subscripts are involved. Distinguish between lowercase l and the numeral one, and between capital O and the numeral zero. A letter or symbol should represent only one entity and be used consistently throughout the paper. Each variable must be defined in the text, or in a list of symbols to appear after the reference list. Numbers identifying equations must be in parentheses and placed flush with the right margin.
Tables
Tables must be typed on separate pages, placed after the list of references, and numbered with Arabic numerals in the order cited in the text. The title of the table should be a concise description of the content. Column headings should be brief, but may be amplified by footnotes. Vertical rules and horizontal lines separating each row should not be used. Footnotes in tables should be designated by symbols (in the order *, ? ? ? ||, ? #) or superscript lowercase italic letters. Descriptive material not designated by a footnote may be placed under a table as a Note.
List of Symbols
A list of symbols must be provided, immediately following the references.
Style Notes: Illustrations
Each figure or group of figures should be designed to fit, after appropriate scaling, into the area of either one or two columns of text. The maximum finished size of a one-column illustration is 9.03 ?22.15 cm (3.56 ?8.72 in.) and that of a two-column illustration is 18.84 ?22.15 cm
7/8 (7.42 ?8.72 in.). The figures must be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals, and each one must be referred to in the text and must be self-explanatory. All terms, abbreviations, and symbols must correspond with those in the text. Only essential labelling should be used, with detailed information given in the caption.
Illustration Files
Authors must supply copies of the original electronic files (i.e., the files produced by the software application that they were created in). PC or Macintosh versions of True Type or Type 1 fonts should be used. Do not use bitmap or nonstandard fonts. Figures with several parts (e.g., a, b, c, d, etc.) created using the same software application should be assembled into one file rather than sent as several separate files.
Line drawings must be computer-generated and proper resolution must be used for bitmap artwork. The minimum requirements for resolution are 600 dpi for line art and fine lines (i.e., line art with fine lines or shading), 300 dpi for halftones and colour, and 600 dpi for combinations (halftones with lettering outside the photo area). All lines must be sufficiently thick (0.5 points minimum) to reproduce well, and all symbols, superscripts, subscripts, and decimal points must be in good proportion to the rest of the drawing and large enough to allow for any necessary reduction without loss of detail. Avoid small open symbols; these tend to fill in upon reproduction. The same font style and lettering sizes should be used for all figures of similar size in any one paper.
All colour files must be submitted as CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black). These colours are used in full-colour commercial printing. RGB graphics (red, green, and blue; colours specifically used to produce an image on a monitor) may not print correctly.
Preparation of Hardcopy Version
In addition to softcopy, a hardcopy version of your manuscript must be supplied. This permits verification that all symbols, colours, and other subjective aspects of your article are accurately reflected in the typeset version. Please supply a high quality laser print with the highest resolution available. Photocopies are not acceptable. All figures should be in their final
8/8 published size. Each illustration must be identified by the figure number and the authors?names on the back of the page or in the left-hand corner, well away from the illustration area and must match the corresponding Electronic files (i.e., Figure number and Figure content).
Photographs should be continuous tone on glossy paper. Prints must be of high quality, on glossy paper, with strong contrast. The copies for reproduction should only show essential features. A photograph, or group of them, should be planned to fit into the area of either one or two columns of text with no further reduction. The best results will be obtained if the authors match the contrast and density of all figures arranged as a single plate.

Guidelines for Associate Editors
The Associate Editors are recognized for their scientific skills and their publication records in their fields of expertise, and have volunteered their efforts for the benefit of CJRS. The Associate Editors perform the following main functions:
Select reviewers and make review decisions, as and when required
Pro-actively solicit input for CJRS by
organizing Special Collections
contributing a review article
promoting CJRS among colleagues
soliciting contributions from colleagues
Review, contribute to, and lead initiatives such as development of plans for electronic publication, development of Editorial Board policies, etc.
Comment upon and approve all Special Issue proposals.
Recommend a winner for the CJRS Prize Paper Award to the CRSS Awards Committee, and prepare a citation.
Guidelines for Guest Editors
A Guest Editor leads a Special Collection initiative by invitation or proposal. All Special Collection projects are subject to approval by the Editorial Board. Special Collections could be published as a dedicated Special Issue or as a Special Section within an issue. Content may be derived from Canadian Remote Sensing Society symposia, workshops or symposia of appropriate subject matter, or collected thematic papers in an individual抯 area of expertise. In order to maintain reader interest and scientific impact, Special Collections should maintain a rapid publication schedule, with a goal of one year between initial announcement and publication.
Guest Editors are usually responsible for all aspects of the review process for their particular Special Collection initiative, including the solicitation of manuscripts, the selection of reviewers, communications with reviewers and authors, publication decisions, and maintenance of the publication schedule. These functions can be carried out in collaboration with other members of the Editorial Board and CASI Headquarters staff. Adequate records must be kept to justify the process and decisions taken. The reviews will be based upon the usual CJRS Manuscript Review Form.
In addition to overseeing the peer-review process, Guest Editors should prepare a directed call for papers as well as the preface for their Special Collection. They should also usually select a cover figure and provide an appropriate caption. For scheduling purposes, Guest Editors should maintain regular communication with the Editor in order to provide up-to-date schedule and content information. This facilitates planning and maintenance of the publication cycle.

Guidelines for Reviewers
The CJRS peer review process is anonymous unless otherwise requested by the reviewer. Reviewers are selected according to their expertise in the field of the submitted paper and, as much as possible, on their past performance in providing a timely and serious review. Their task is twofold: to determine whether the paper under review has any serious technical or theoretical flaws, and then to judge its originality in terms of research risk. This is facilitated through completion of the CJRS Manuscript Review Form and by providing detailed constructive comments for the author抯 benefit and to improve the paper. It should be noted that a detailed review of grammar and style is not essential since a qualified technical editor edits all accepted manuscripts.
The usual time frame to complete a review is four weeks after receipt of the review package (except for Research Notes for which we request a two-week turnaround). Reviewers are always contacted in advance via e-mail to ensure that the topic is relevant to their field of expertise and that the required timeframe can be met. They should immediately contact the Editor if they find that they will be unable to meet the deadline date. Whenever possible, we request that reviews be returned via e-mail or fax.
Reviewers should be aware of the types of papers published in CJRS; it is within their mandate to re-categorize a paper that does not meet the appropriate standards.
The Canadian Remote Sensing Society and the Editorial Board are greatly indebted to those individuals who spend the time and effort to provide a conscientious review. This is a significant task that goes largely unrewarded and can only be justified given the individual reviewer抯 dedication to the pursuit of scientific quality. As an acknowledgement, we list the reviewers' names annually in the final issue of each Volume
