1. The scope of the journal
The International Journal of Remote Sensing is published twenty-four times a year in print and electronic editions.
This Journal is concerned with the science and technology of remote sensing and the applications of remote sensing data in all disciplines. Principle topics are: data collection, analysis, interpretation and display; surveying from space, air and water platforms; sensors; image processing; use of remotely sensed data; economic surveys and cost-benefit analyses. The journal contains primary papers and technical notes on basic science, techniques and applications, and Remote Sensing Letters, which comprise material which merits accelerated publication. From time to time, we publish specially commissioned review articles or essays. Many papers, technical notes, review articles, and Letters feature illustrations in colour.
The International Journal of Remote Sensing will provide:
- cutting edge scientific writing on all aspects of remote sensing and its applications.
- an international medium for the publication of theoretical and practical discussions on: data collection, analysis, interpretation, and display; surveying from sea, air, and space; sensor properties and characteristics; digital and analogue techniques of image processing; and economic surveys and cost/benefit analyses.
- a forum for researchers and 'practitioner-researchers' to consider conceptual, methodological, and practical issues in a range of professional and service settings and sectors, such as agriculture; cartography; climatology; forestry; geomorphology; geography; geology; hazard monitoring; hydrology; lunar, planetary, and astronomical studies; marine resources; meteorology; oceanography; pedology; resources inventory and survey; rural and urban planning; and underwater sonar surveys.
The Journal's editorial team is co-ordinated by the Editor-in-Chief, Professor A. P. Cracknell, of the Division of Electronic Engineering and Physics, University of Dundee, UK. He is supported by an international group of Editors: Professor P. Gong, USA; Professor A. C. B. Roberts, Canada; Dr S. Tanaka, Japan; Dr R. K. Gupta, India; Dr. M. Weir, The Netherlands; Dr. G. B. Fran鏰, Brazil; Dr. W. G. Huang, China; Dr. S. Paloscia, Italy; Professor A. K. Saraf, India; and Dr. Y Xue, UK.
The Letters section is managed by the Letters Editors, Professor G. Foody and Professor P. Atkinson of the Department of Geography, University of Southampton, UK. Book reviews are managed by the Book Reviews Editor, Dr R. A. Vaughan of the Division of Electronic Engineering and Physics, University of Dundee , UK. Review articles are managed by Professor M. J. Collins of the Department of Geomatics Engineering, University of Calgary, Canada.
The International Journal of Remote Sensing is an official journal of the Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society
2. The structure and organization of the Journal
The Journal is organized into the following sections.
2.1. Research papers, review articles, and technical notes
This section will contain research with a theoretical grounding; papers will typically be between 5000 and 8000 words, debating and exploring theoretical and methodological issues, methodological approaches, and substantive topics. However, there is not necessarily an upper limit on length, and authors of longer papers are encouraged to contact the Editor-in-Chief with a synopsis. Technical notes are designed as a medium for the publication of short communications that, however, do not require the fast-track publication route offered for Letters. Typically such notes are between 1000 and 2000 words. Review articles or essays are generally commissioned by invitation of the Editors.
All research papers, review articles, and technical notes will be subject to peer review.

Email: a.p.cracknell@dundee.ac.uk
2.2. Remote Sensing Letters
Remote Sensing Letters offers authors a route for rapid communication of advance results of research and application. Such Letters may later become the subject of a full paper. Authors submitting letters for consideration should treat requests for revision as a matter of priority: in turn, both the Letters Editor and the Publishers will fast-track publication of accepted Letters. Letters must not exceed 2000 words inclusive of all materials. All Letters will be subject to peer review.

3. Submitting a manuscript to International Journal of Remote Sensing
3.1. General guidelines
Please read this Guide with care and attention: should you fail to follow it, your research paper, Letter, or technical note, may be delayed. Note especially the referencing conventions used by International Journal of Remote Sensing and the requirement for gender-, race-, and creed-inclusive language, and for the adherence to the Syst鑝e Internationale.
International Journal of Remote Sensing considers all manuscripts on condition they are the property (copyright) of the submitting author(s) and that copyright will be transferred to International Journal of Remote Sensing and Taylor & Francis Ltd if the manuscript is accepted.
International Journal of Remote Sensing considers all manuscripts on the strict condition that they have been submitted only to International Journal of Remote Sensing, that they have not been published already, nor are they under consideration for publication, nor in press elsewhere. Authors who fail to adhere to this condition will be charged all costs which International Journal of Remote Sensing incurs, and their manuscripts will not be published.
- Please write clearly and concisely, stating your objectives clearly and defining your terms. Your arguments should be substantiated with well-reasoned supporting evidence.
- For all manuscripts, non-discriminatory language is mandatory. Sexist or racist terms should not be used.
- In writing your manuscript, you are encouraged to review articles in the area you are addressing which have been previously published in the journal, and where you feel appropriate, to reference them. This will enhance context, coherence, and continuity for our readers.
- Abstracts of not more than 200 words are required for all manuscripts submitted, and should precede the body text.
- Manuscripts should be typed on one single side of A4 or 8 x 11 inch white good quality paper, double-spaced throughout, including the reference section.
- Four copies of any manuscript must be submitted; five copies for Letters manuscripts.
- Authors should include telephone and fax numbers as well as e-mail addresses on the cover page of manuscripts.
- Accepted manuscripts in their final, revised versions, must also be submitted as electronic word processing files on disk or via file transfer protocol; see 'A Guide to Electronic Processing'.
- The International Journal of Remote Sensing has a limited number of free colour pages within its annual page allowance. However, authors should restrict their use of colour to situations in which it is necessary on scientific, and not merely cosmetic, grounds.
- Articles are normally published in English, but contributions in French and German are acceptable for consideration at the discretion of the Editor-in-Chief.
3.2. Remote Sensing Letters
Letters manuscripts must not exceed the equivalent of 2000 words inclusive of the abstract, equations, references, tables, and figures. In the first instance, five copies of Letters manuscripts should be submitted to the Editorial Office detailed below.
Accepted Letters will be normally published within four months of acceptance, provided no further revisions are necessary. Accepted letters must be delivered to the Publishers in an electronic form, in addition, of course, to hard (paper) copy. Authors should refer to the guidelines for the electronic processing of manuscripts contained within this Guide.
We look forward to receiving your submissions, which should be sent to:
Professor A. P. Cracknell, Editorial Office, International Journal of Remote Sensing, Division of Electronic Engineering and Physics, University of Dundee, Dundee, DD1 4HN, UK
Email:a.p.cracknell@dundee.ac.uk
3.3 Abstracts
Structured abstracts are required for all manuscripts, and should be submitted as detailed below, following the title and author's name and address, preceding the main text.
For manuscripts reporting original research, state the primary objective and any hypothesis tested; describe the research design and your reasons for adopting that methodology; state the methods and procedures employed, including where appropriate tools, hardware, software, the selection and number of study areas/subjects, and the central experimental interventions; state the main outcomes and results, including relevant data; and state the conclusions that might be drawn from these data and results, including their implications for further research or application/practice.
Abstracts should not exceed 200 words.
3.4. Copyright permission
Contributors are required to secure permission for the reproduction of any figure, table, or extensive (more than fifty word) extract from the text, from a source which is copyrighted - or owned - by a party other than Taylor & Francis or the contributor.
This applies both to direct reproduction or 'derivative reproduction' - when the contributor has created a new figure or table which derives substantially from a copyrighted source.
3.5. Mathematics
Special care should be taken with mathematics in manuscripts, especially subscripts and superscripts and differentiation between the letter 'ell' and the figure one, and the letter 'oh 'and the figure zero.
In the unlikely event your keyboard does not have the characters you need, it is preferable to use longhand, in which case it is important to differentiate between capital and small letters, K, k and x and other similar groups of letters. Special symbols should be highlighted in the text and explained in the margin. In some cases it is helpful to supply annotated lists of symbols for the guidance of the sub-editor and the typesetter, and/or a 'Nomenclature' following the abstract.
For simple fractions in the text, the solidus / should be used instead of a horizontal line, care being taken to insert parentheses where necessary to avoid ambiguity, for example, I /(n-1). Exceptions are the proper fractions available as single type on a keyboard.
Full formulae or equations should be displayed, that is, written on a separate line. Horizontal lines are preferable to solidi.
The solidus is never used for units: ms-1 not m/s, but note electrons/s, counts/channel, etc.
Displayed equations referred to in the text should be numbered serially on the right hand side of the page. Short expressions not referred to by any number will usually be incorporated in the text, but are discouraged.
?= m2 - b ?a (2)
In-text references should be in the form '?as shown in equation (2) ?
Symbols should not be underlined to indicate fonts except for tensors, vectors and matrices, which are indicated with a wavy line in the manuscript (not with a straight arrow or arrow above) and rendered in heavy type in print: upright sans serif r (tensor), sloping serif r (vector) upright serif r (matrix).
Typographical requirements must be clearly indicated at their first occurrence, e.g. Greek, Roman, script, sans serif, bold, italic. Authors will be charged for corrections at proof stage resulting from a failure to do so.
Braces, brackets and parentheses are used in the order {[( )]}, except where mathematical convention dictates otherwise (i.e. square brackets for commutators and anticommutators).

4. Notes on style
All authors are asked to take account of the global, diverse audience of International Journal of Remote Sensing. Clearly explain or avoid the use of terms that might be meaningful only to a local or national audience.
Some specific points of style for the text of articles, research reports, case studies, reports, essay reviews, and reviews follow.
- We prefer US to 'American', USA to 'United States', and UK to 'United Kingdom'.
- We use conservative (British, not US, spelling, i.e. colour not color; behaviour (behavioural) not behavior; [he] practises not practices; centre not center; organization not organisation; analyse not analyze, etc.
- Single 'quotes' are used for quotations rather than double "quotes", unless the 'quote is "within" another quote'.
- Punctuation should follow the British style, e.g. 'quotes precede punctuation'.
- Punctuation of common abbreviations should follow the following conventions: e.g. i.e. cf. Note that such abbreviations are not followed by a comma or a (double) point/period.
- Dashes; em-dash should be clearly indicated in manuscripts by way of either a clear dash (-) or a triple hyphen (---), the en-dash should be indicated by a clear dash (-) or a double hyphen.
- We are sparing in the use of upper case in headings and references, e.g. only the first word in paper titles and all subheads is in upper case; titles of papers from journals in the references and other places are not in upper case.
- Apostrophes should be used sparingly. Thus, decades should be referred to as follows: 'The 1980s [not the 1980's] saw ...'. Possessives associated with acronyms, should be written as follows: 'The AVHRR's findings that ...', but, NB, the plural is AVHRRs.
- All acronyms for national agencies, examinations, etc., should be spelled out the first time they are introduced in text or references. Thereafter the acronym can be used if appropriate, e.g. 'The work of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the early 1980s ...'. Subsequently, 'The NOAA studies of achievement ...', in a reference ... (Jet Propulsion Laboratory [JPL] 1989a).
- Material to be emphasized (italicized in the printed version) should be underlined in the typescript rather than italicized. Please use such emphasis sparingly.
- n (not N), % (not per cent) should be used in typescripts.
- Numbers in text should take the following forms: 300, 3000, 30 000. Spell out numbers under 10 unless used with a unit of measure, e.g. nine pupils but 9mm (do not introduce periods with measure). For decimals, use the form 0.05 not (.05).
5. Notes on tables and figures
Artwork submitted for publication will not be returned and will be destroyed after publication, unless you request otherwise. Whilst every care is taken of artwork, neither the Editor nor Taylor & Francis shall bear any responsibility or liability for non-return, loss, or damage of artwork, nor for any associated costs or compensation. You are strongly advised to insure appropriately.
- Tables and figures should be referred to in text as follows: figure 1, table 1, i.e. lower case. 'As seen in table [or figure] 1 ...' (not Tab., fig. or Fig).
- The place at which a table or figure is to be inserted in the printed text should be indicated clearly on a manuscript:
[Insert table 2 about here ]
- All figures and tables must be on separate sheets and not embedded in the text. Thus tables and figures must be referred to in text and numbered in order of appearance. Each table should have a descriptive title and each column an appropriate heading. For all figures, original copies of figures should be supplied. All figures should allow for reduction to column width (7.5 cm) or page width (160mm). Please avoid figures that would require landscape reproduction, i.e., reading from bottom to top of the page. Photographs may be sent as glossy prints or negatives. The legends to any illustrations must be typed separately following the text and should be grouped together. Maps must have a scale and north point. Graph axes must state terms and units.
6. Citations in text
References should be cited using the author-date, or Harvard, system.
- 'Ibid.' (and the like) are not used when repeating citations. Simply repeat the original citation verbatim,e.g. (Orwell 1945).
- Citations should be included in prefatory material to quotes (wherever possible) rather than placing them at the end. Thus, for example, 'Orwell (1945: 23) reduces the principles of animalism to seven commandments, namely, ...' is preferred to 'Orwell reduced the principles of animalism to seven commandments, namely, ... (Orwell 1945: 23)'.
- Multiple citations within parentheses should be divided by a comma, not a semi-colon, and there should be no use of '&' within such multiple references. References to works published in the same year should be cited as, e.g. (Smith 1991a, b).
- Multiple citations within a text should be ordered by date, not alphabetically by authors name, e.g. (Smith 1902, Jones and Bower 1934, Brown 1955, 1958a, b, Green 1995).
- 'et al.' may be used in references within the text when a paper or book has three or more authors, but note that all names should be given in the reference itself.
- Page spans in references should be given in full, e.g. 'Sedgewick (1935: 102-103; emphasis added) outlines them as follows:'.
7. Acknowledgements
Any acknowledgements authors wish to make should be included in a separate headed section at the end of the manuscript.

9. A Guide to Electronic Processing of Accepted Papers
It is essential that authors provide the final, revised version of an accepted manuscript in hard (paper) and electronic forms.
Normally we receive and process electronic versions on disk, but if you would like to employ our file transfer protocol (FTP) facility, please contact Taylor & Francis Ltd at the address given below.
This Guide sets out the procedures which will assure we can process your article efficiently. It is divided intothree sections:
- a guide for authors using standard word-processing software packages
- a guide for authors using LaTeX mathematical software packages
- a guide for authors using graphics software packages
There are some general rules which apply to all three options.
- these guides do not apply to authors who are submitting an article for consideration and peer review; they apply only to authors whose articles have been reviewed, revised, and accepted for publication
- print out your hard (paper) copy from the disk you are sending; it is essential that the hard-copy printout is identical to the material on the disk; where versions differ, the hard copy will take precedence. We advise that you maintain back-ups of your files
- save and send your files on a standard 3.5 inch high density disk (Mac or PC); please do not attempt to send the article via file transfer protocol or email
- when saving your article onto a disk, please make sure that the files do not exceed a manageable size. Please ensure that figures are saved on a separate disk
- ensure that the files are not saved as read only
- virus-check your disk before sending it to the Editor
- label your disk
- package disks in such a way as to avoid damage in the post
Disks are not returnable after publication
9.1. A guide for authors using standard word-processing software packages
For the main text of your article, most standard PC or Mac word-processing software packages are acceptable, although we prefer Microsoft Word in a PC format.
Word-processed files should be prepared according to the journal style.
Avoid the use of embedded footnotes. For numbered tables, use the table function provided with the word processing package.
All text should be saved in one file with the complete text (including the title page, abstract, all sections of thebody of the paper, references), followed by numbered tables and the figure captions.
You should send the following to the Editor:
- a 3.5-inch disk containing the final, accepted version of the paper
- include an ASCII/text only version on the disk as well as the word processed version if possible
- two hard copy printouts
Disks should be clearly labelled with the following information:
- Journal title
- Name of author
- File names contained on disk
- Hardware used (PC or Mac)
- Software used (name and version)
Sample disk label: text
Journal title
A.N. Author
article.doc
IBM PC
MS Word for Windows 7.0
9. 2. A guide for authors using LaTeX mathematical software packages
Authors who wish to prepare their articles using the LaTeX document preparation system are advised to use article.sty (for LaTex 2.09) or article.cls (for LaTex2e).
The use of macros should be kept to an absolute minimum but if any are used they should be gathered together in the file, just before the \begin{document} command
You should send the following to the Editor:
- a 3.5-inch disk containing the final, accepted version of the paper
- the files you send must be text-only (often called an ASCII file), with no system-dependent control codes
- two hard copy printouts
Disks should be clearly labelled with the following information:
- Journal title
- Name of author
- File names contained on disk
- Hardware used (PC or Mac)
- Software used (name and version)
Sample disk label: LaTeX
Journal title
A.N. Author
article.tex
article.sty
IBM PC
PCLaTeX v2.09
9.3. A guide for authors using graphics software packages
We welcome figures on disk, but care and attention to these guidelines is essential, as importing graphics packages can often be problematic.
- Figures must be saved on a separate disk from the text.
- Avoid the use of colour and tints for aesthetic reasons. Figures should be produced as near to the finished size as possible.
- High quality reproducible hard copy for all line figures (printed out from your electronic files at a minimum of 600 dpi) must be supplied in case the disks are unusable; photographs and transparencies can be accepted as hard copy only. Photocopies will not be accepted.
- All figures must be numbered in the order in which they occur (e.g. figure 1, figure 2 etc.). In multi-part figures, each part should be labelled (e.g. figure 1 (a), figure 1 (b) etc.)
- The figure captions must be saved as a separate file with the text and numbered correspondingly.
- The filename for the graphic should be descriptive of the graphic e.g. Figure1, Figure2a.
- Files should be saved as TIFF (tagged image file format), PostScript or EPS (encapsulated PostScript), containing all the necessary font information and the source file of the application (e.g., CorelDraw/Mac, CorelDraw/PC).
Disks should be clearly labelled with the following information:
- Journal title
- Name of author
- Figures contained on disk
- Hardware used (PC or Mac)
- Software used (name and version)
Sample disk label: figures

10. About Taylor & Francis
The foundations of Taylor & Francis were laid in pioneering fashion in 1798. Richard Taylor printed and launched the Philosophical Magazine, one of the first scientific journals published by an independent company.
It was the start of a close collaboration with scholarly societies which was cultivated throughout the 1880s. The company became the printer for the Royal Astronomical Society, the Geological Society, the Zoological Society, the Horticultural Society, the Royal Botanical Society, the British Association for the Advancement of Science, the Royal Society and the Linnean Society of London. With the proliferation of periodicals and information generated by learned societies at the turn of the century, Taylor & Francis also became pioneers in the field of abstracting journals, and in 1890 the company became the first printer of Science Abstracts the precursor of today's Physics Abstracts.
Book publishing was a mostly secondary concern for the company until the 1960s, when significant expansion was implemented at all levels from schoolbooks to high level monographs. Since then the focus of book publishing has been predominantly at the undergraduate level and above, with an ever larger number of subject areas brought into the programme.
The principles which drove the founders of Taylor and Francis are still paramount today. Academic scholarship must be of the highest quality which will be reflected in appropriate production practices and values. We hope that we remain true to those principles and that being a Taylor & Francis author is still a pleasant, profitable and proud experience.
