The Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences

The Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences (EJRS) covers all aspects of Remote Sensing, Geographic Information Systems and the development of Space Technologies and Applications. The objective of EJRS is to publish on the development of remote sensing technology and its applications for optimal planning, sustainable development and the protection of the environmental resources.

Areas of interest include, but are not necessarily limited to:

1. Remote Sensing and GIS Technology
Image and Signal Processing for:
Optical, Radar, Lidar image preprocessing /processing techniques
Image enhancement, image restoration, machine Intelligence, data fusion, etc.
Image understanding: Pattern recognition, classification techniques, object and change detection, content-based retrieval of images

2. Remote Sensing and GIS Applications in:
Geology: Geomorphology - Structure - Hydrogeology - Mineralogy - Engineering Geology - Space Archaeology
Agriculture: Soil Science -Crop conditions assessment, identification and Crop yield estimation- Precision Agriculture- Irrigation management- Agro-environment - Plant diseases and protection
