Remote sensing is a powerful monitoring tool able to image extended areas at low cost and with regular revisiting time. To face the current and expected future increase in the frequency of natural hazards, new technologies in remote sensing have been developed multi-platform (including radar, optical/hyperspectral sensing and multi-scale mode, with the aims to improve the flexibility in data collections and resolution. In particular, the possibility to understand the multi-scale aspects of geological systems is so intriguing that it needs to be further investigated. It is especially aimed to emphasize the interaction between geological processes occurring at different scales. In particular, special attention is devoted to the studies focused on the development of new techniques and integrated instrumentation for multiscale monitoring of high geological risk areas.
Contributions are expected, but not limited, to the most up-to-date research on remote sensing data exploitation and integration through multi-platform and multi-scale mode, aiming at the improvement of the knowledge of geological and environmental phenomena, such as earthquakes, landslide, volcano activity, subsidence.
