Call for Papers
Aims & Scope
Open Access. What does it really mean?
Dear Colleagues,
IJGI provides an advanced forum for the science and technology
of geographic information. The journal publishes regular research
papers, reviews and communications.
Open access is mainly a response to what is known as the serials
crisis: yearly increasing journal subscription prices, which make
subscription-based journals increasingly difficult to afford.
Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental
and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no
restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details
must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
Many university libraries around the world have had to cancel
existing subscriptions, or are unable to keep up with subscribing
to new journals, because the cost of publication has risen
disproportionately to their budgets.
Scope:
With open access publishing, the cost of peer-review and production
of an article is borne by the institute of the author by payment of a
one-time flat fee. Conversely, readers and their institutes are no
longer charged for accessing the journals they need.
You are invited to contribute a research article
or a comprehensive review for consideration
and publication in ISPRS International Journal of
Geo-Information (IJGI) (ISSN 2220-9964). IJGI,
an international scientific open access journal on
geo-information, is jointly published by ISPRS and
MDPI online quarterly.
Manuscripts prepared in Microsoft Word
or LaTeX can be submitted to the Editorial
Office online at www.mdpi.com. Detailed
instructions for authors are also available online:
www.mdpi.com/journal/ijgi/instructions/
IJGI is published in open access format—
research articles, reviews and other contents
are released on the Internet immediately after
acceptance. The scientific community and the
public have unlimited and free access to the
content as soon as it is published.
As an open access journal, IJGI is
supported by the authors or their institutes by
payment of article processing charges (APC) for
accepted papers. More information is available at:
www.mdpi.com/about/apc/
We would be pleased to welcome you as one of
our authors.

For researchers, open access brings the convenience of immediate
access to the literature that they need—no matter for which
university or company they work, or whether they just want to read
a paper in their spare time at home.
For authors, open access means a much wider circle of readers
due to the easy access to their research papers. The interested
general public is also able to access research works, giving higher
transparency to the outcome of taxpayer money spent on research.
Publication Ethics Statement
IJGI is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
IJGI takes the responsibility to enforce a rigorous peer-review
together with strict ethical policies and standards to ensure to add
high quality scientific works to the field of scholarly publication.
