Paper Submission

The review results have been sent by email to all authors. The list of accepted papers is available here. If you have not recieved the results notification by email, please contact papers@igarss2013.org.

Participation in IGARSS is open to all individuals interested in or working in the fields of geoscience and remote sensing. Abstracts received by the deadline will be considered for program placement under the standard peer review process. Late abstracts cannot be accepted due to the large number of submissions and short review schedule. The IEEE IGARSS 2013 Technical Program Committee will organize all accepted abstracts into either oral or interactive poster sessions based upon their potential contribution to the symposium and the composition of high-quality sessions.

Attention publishing authors! Only accepted papers that are registered, written in the required 4-page full paper IEEE format, submitted by June 1, 2012, and presented by one of the authors at the symposium will be published in the symposium proceedings in IEEE Xplore.

Please note the following important notes regarding the distribution of IGARSS 2013 abstracts and proceedings:

  1. Electronic media containing all IGARSS 2013 abstracts and full proceedings papers (4-page, IEEE format) will be distributed to all registered attendees at the symposium.
  2. Submission of a full proceedings paper (4-page, IEEE format) is not mandatory, but strongly recommended for all the accepted abstracts.
  3. The authors who wish to enter the Student Prize Paper Competition of IGARSS 2013 must submit the full proceedings paper (4-page, IEEE format), a letter from their advisor, and proof of their student status by January 13, 2014.
