About This Topic
Dear Colleagues,
I am excited to announce the kickoff of the special issue: Hyperspectral Remote Sensing (HRS) on Advances in Environmental and Engineering Research. Although HRS has been widely used in many areas including water quality, agriculture, geology, limnology, and atmospheric sciences since its first introduction in 1983, it has never been such a grand occasion as right now for the applications of HRS because of that hyperspectral sensors have become affordable to individual research entities, and that two recent technological advances - drones (UAV) and artificial intelligence- provide essential support for data acquisition and information extraction. With airplanes still dominating HRS data acquisition, a blooming of drone-based HRS is evident in the current literature. Technical challenges remain as the obstacle in the applications of HRS, which include image noise, band correlation, high dimensionality, absorption feature overlapping, and geometric distortion. I invite you to contribute to this special issue by submitting your recent work as technical articles or review papers of the applications of HRS.
Interesting topics are but not limited to:
1. Satellite-based HRS
2. UAV platforms and sensors
3. Atmospheric correction
4. Data noise reduction
5. Dimension reduction and feature extraction
6. Band ratio and band selection
7. Vegetation phenology and mapping
8. Soil and mineral spectroscopic analyses
9. Water quality mapping
10. Geologic feature mapping
11. Geometric correction of HRS images
12. Deep learning and data mining of HRS data
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted through the LIDSEN Submission System. Detailed information on manuscript preparation and submission is available in the Instructions for Authors. All submitted articles will be thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process and will be processed following the Editorial Process and Quality Control policy. Upon acceptance, the article will be immediately published in a regular issue of the journal and will be listed together on the special issue website, with a label that the article belongs to the Special Issue. LIDSEN distributes articles under the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY 4.0) License in an open-access model. The authors own the copyright to the article, and the article can be free to access, distribute, and reuse provided that the original work is correctly cited.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). Research articles and review articles are highly invited. Authors are encouraged to send the tentative title and abstract of the planned paper to the Editorial Office (aeer@lidsen.com) for record. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Editorial Office.
Welcome your submission!

Assessment of Factors Affecting the Use of Drones in Map ProductionAbstract Multi-rotor and fixed-wing drones are extensively used to collect the data needed for producing large-scale topographic maps and plans. Several types of drone products are available, and the most important one for surveyors is an orthophoto. Flight planning, the quality of the control data, the assessment of drone products, and [...] |

Abstract Passive high spatial resolution hyperspectral and multispectral imaging systems in the solar spectral region from aircraft and satellite platforms are being increasingly used for remote sensing of coastal waters and inland lakes. However, the remotely sensed data are often contaminated by the specular reflection of solar radiation [...] |
