International Journal of Remote Sensing (IJRS) is a subscription-based peeer reviewed journal publishing international research on remote sensing of the atmosphere, biosphere, cryosphere and the terrestrial earth, as well as human modifications to the earth system.

An official journal of the   Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society,  International Journal of Remote Sensing addresses the theory, science and technology of remote sensing and novel applications of remotely sensed data.

The IJRS Drones Section publishes research related to remote sensing with unmanned aerial systems (UASs, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones)

The journal covers the following topics:

    Remotely sensed data collection, analysis, interpretation and display
    Surveying from space, air, water and ground platforms
    Imaging and related sensors
    Image processing
    Use of remotely sensed data
    Economic surveys and cost-benefit analyses

The International Journal of Remote Sensing accepts original research articles and review papers.

The journal operates a single-anonymized peer review policy.  RSPSoc members can publish their work Gold Open Access for a discounted article publishing charge (APC). Please email tricia.pantos@tandf.co.uk with your RSPSoc membership number if you would like to choose this option.
