Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to host a selection of papers related to new perspectives on the use of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for archaeology, environmental, engineering, geology, monumental heritage, and various other potential applications. In recent years, GPR prospecting has seen major advances through a variety of instruments and computing technologies. GPR instrumentation continues to improve in sensitivity and acquisition speed, and new multi-sensor arrays, e.g., those drawn by carts over land, now allow for vast areas to be rapidly covered. Additionally, increased the availability of high-resolution GPR techniques has provided multiscale and multi-temporal approaches to the study of problems related to the environment (i.e., illegal landfills), to the individuation of ancient buried settlements, and to the preservation of monumental heritage to noninvasive diagnosis through micro-geophysical techniques.
We welcome contributions in all fields of GPR, including new systems, signal processing algorithms, and new applications.

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.
