Metrics
“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. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.
Indexing & access
Access status: gold. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.
Scope
Frequently asked
Is Remote Sensing a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Remote Sensing. 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, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Remote Sensing indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Remote Sensing appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is Remote Sensing's impact?
Papers in Remote Sensing are cited about 3.9 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 264. This is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric — and a citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
Is Remote Sensing 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.
