Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,

Agriculture is very complex system, in which various kinds of objects 
should be observed, such as plants, field environment, field machinery, 
farm workers, etc. often under uncontrolled situations, to achieve 
quality control of farm products. To acquire high quality farm products 
or to efficiently acquire those, automatic measurement of the objects in 
the filed is required, which is called precise agriculture, or smart 
agriculture. Computer vision, or machine vision, which has become a very 
powerful tool for observing various objects in agricultural activities, 
plays important roles in smart agriculture, or precise agriculture. In 
this special issue, we are looking forward to submissions of practical 
and sophisticated computer vision methodology for precise agriculture, 
or smart agriculture, from researchers/developers of related research 
fields.

The topics are shown in the below, but not limited to those.

Prof. Rin-ichiro Taniguchi
Dr. Hideaki Uchiyama

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering 
and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to 
go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the 
deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be 
published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be 
listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review 
articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned 
papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the 
Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be 
under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference 
proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a 
single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant 
information for submission of manuscripts is available on the 
Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Imaging is an international 
peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a 
manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) is waived for 
well-prepared manuscripts submitted to this issue. Submitted papers 
should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's 
English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
