Submission Guidelines

🚨 Proposal submission deadline: until July 31, 2026.

We are pleased to invite you to submit proposals for Special Sessions, Thematic Sessions, and Short Courses for the XXII SBSR.

Special Sessions (plenaries) are dedicated to current scientific topics of high impact and broad scope. Thematic Sessions, on the other hand, address relevant scientific questions with a specific focus on a particular area of Remote Sensing. In both cases, proposals must highlight the state of the art in their application areas, prioritizing themes that demonstrate recent scientific advances and their impacts on society.

→ Special Session: Special Sessions will be plenaries and will take place from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM (90 minutes). The number of speakers and the duration of presentations are at the discretion of the proponent.
