The design, performance, and application of sensors for geoinformatics and remote sensing have become more essential to understand the physical, ecological, hydrological, and environmental characteristics of Earth surfaces.

In this Special Issue, we invite original research articles and literature review papers addressing the state-of-the-art sensor technologies and methods in applying geo-spatial technologies, which include geospatial information sciences (GIS), remote sensing (RS), photogrammetry, global positioning system (GPS), etc.

The aim is to create a multidisciplinary forum of discussion on recent advances in sensor technologies and methods for geoinformatics and remote sensing as well as new applications to biology, ecology, hydrology, engineering, etc.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

• Novel sensor design and platforms development
• Multi-sensor system design and on-board processing
• Advances in sensors for remote sensing
• Multi-sensor integration
• Multi-platform remote sensing
• Geo-spatial data models with sensors
• Spatial big data analysis in sensors
• Position and localization systems, algorithms and techniques
• Application and innovative use of geoinformation sensor techniques
• Real-time emergency spatial decision support sensor systems
• Sensor technique in UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles) applications
• Hyperspectral sensors
• Laser scanning sensors
• Image processing algorithm and systems
• Geo-information extraction and data mining
• Spatiotemporal analysis
