“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

OpenAlex counts about 0.7 citations per paper over two years; Scopus, through Scimago, counts 1.51 per document. The two databases index different journals, documents and citations, so the figures differ. Neither is a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category; “—” in the Quartile column means Scimago prints no quartile for that category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” in the Rank column means we hold no rank consistent with the printed quartile, or none at all. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences has SJR 0.37 (Scimago) and an h-index of 63 (OpenAlex). Listed in DOAJ, Scopus.

Frequently asked

Is ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, which is a positive signal.

Is ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences appears in: DOAJ, Scopus. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences?

Papers in ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences are cited about 0.7 times each within two years of publication, with an h-index of 63. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

Is ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences open access?

Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.

Is ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences free to publish in?

Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC). So there is no fee for authors to publish in ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences. Fee policies change — confirm on the journal's own site before relying on it.

How long does ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences take to publish a paper?

Submission to publication for ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences takes about ~16 wk — DOAJ self-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for ISPRS annals of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences.
