Open Access Remote sensing Journals
A list of Open Access Remote sensing journals for you to publish your manuscript in
Remote sensing is acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object, especially the Earth
Open access (OA) is a key part of making research shareable and reproducable. All journal articles published open access undergoe the same rigorous peer review process.
Our team made this list of Remote sensing Open Access journals with the aim to help you to decide where to publish your Remote sensing manuscript.
The list below includes all high-impact factor Remote sensing journals as well as new up and comming journals where it might also be more affordable to publish.Rather than displaying just the most relevant Remote sensing journals, we have made an in-depth list of all the open accesss Remote sensing journals. Use our different columns — number of papers, number of citations, and relevance — to find the best Remote sensing venue for your manuscript.
The DOAJ columns refers to the The Directory of Open Access Journals, a list of open access journals, maintained by Infrastructure Services for Open Access.
There are certain criteria a journal must meet to be indexed by DOAJ, and thus inclusion in the DOAJ index is seen by scholars as a mark of quality.
All the open access Remote sensing journals in this list are indexed in OA.mg.
If you spot any mistakes in this table of Remote sensing OA journals, don’t hesitate to send us an email.
