Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the application of remote sensing technologies to understand and monitor environmental and societal issues. Recent articles demonstrate the use of satellite data for analyzing land surface properties, mapping soil contaminants, detecting environmental disasters like fish mortality events, assessing forest recovery potential, classifying crop types in agricultural landscapes, and monitoring volcanic hydrothermal activity. The studies integrate various remote sensing data sources with analytical methods to provide insights into environmental conditions and inform decision-making.
