Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our planet’s dynamic nature, exemplified by shifting tectonic plates and the resulting seismic activity, necessitates advanced, comprehensive monitoring systems. The discipline of remote sensing stands at the forefront in this regard, providing a powerful toolkit to track, interpret, and predict these changes. Sophisticated algorithms lie at the core of these tools which transform multisensor data into invaluable insights into the Earth’s geomorphological processes.
This Special Issue titled “Algorithm Development in Earth Observation Modeling Using Multi-sensor Data” focuses on the evolution and significance of these algorithms, especially as they apply to understanding active tectonic and volcanic geomorphology processes. This Special Issue will delve into the use of radar remote sensing techniques, such as Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), which are essential for mitigating natural hazards, and optical remote sensing involving multispectral and hyperspectral sensors, which are vital for environmental monitoring and land-use changes.
As we grapple with escalating environmental concerns and an unprecedented influx of data from various satellite systems, this research field has become indispensable. It invites contributions exploring both short-term and long-term deformations that inform the geomorphology and tectonic processes across various tectonic regimes worldwide. With a broad scope covering major geological hazards like earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, and debris flows, we welcome studies that harness multisource data integration tools, such as satellite remote sensing, InSAR, high-resolution drone airborne optical images, remote spectral datasets, and LiDAR. Through fostering algorithmic advancements in remote sensing, we aim to better equip ourselves to understand and respond to our rapidly changing planet.
