We are delighted to present the Frontiers in Environmental Science “Women in Environmental Informatics and Remote Sensing” series of article collections.
At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
Therefore, Frontiers in Environmental Science is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all fields of Environmental Informatics and Remote Sensing.
The work presented here highlights the diversity of research in the following subjects: Remote Sensing, Artificial Intelligence, Geographical Information Systems, Spatial Information Technologies, Environmental Monitoring (water, air, soil), Computer Graphics, and Decision Support Systems. It aims to present advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.
Please note: to be considered for this collection, the first or last author should be a researcher who identifies as a woman.
