Author Instructions
All Review Article and Tutorial submissions to GRSM first require a White Paper to be submitted. Column papers do not require a White Paper and invited papers for special issues do not require a white paper. White papers are usually no more than 1-1.5 pages long in an abstract style and should include Title, The author list, contact information of corresponding author.
A document about the White Paper rationale and a template description is available at this link www.grss-ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/GRSM-White-Paper-rationale-and-temp….
Please do not submit your full-length article or supplementary material at the same time you submit the White Paper. White Papers needs to be evaluated independently before the full submission.
Submitting White Papers:
- All authors must submit a White Paper before submitting a full-length article for Reviews and Tutorials.
- Manuscripts transferred from a referring journal do not need to submit a white paper.
- To submit a White Paper for one of these two submission types, choose the appropriate submission type below and follow the submission instructions.
To submit a white paper, please choose one of the following:
- White Paper-Review
- White Paper-Tutorial
Submitting Full Length Articles:
- To submit a full-length Review or Tutorial article, your White Paper submission must have already been invited for full article review. If your white paper has led to an invitation, you will find a link to your submission under the “Manuscripts Awaiting Revisions” queue in your Author Center.
- Click on “Manuscripts Awaiting Revision” and click the action “create a revision” and then proceed in submitting your full article as a “revision” of the white paper. You may also click the “Click here to submit a revision” link.
- Please ensure that you change the manuscript type to reflect the correct designation:
- Review
- Tutorial
- To continue a submission already in progress, click the “Continue Submission” link in the “Unsubmitted Manuscripts” list.
Please note: If your revision deadline has expired and will not let you upload your full article, please email the administrator to extend the revision deadline. Any full papers submitted as “new manuscripts” will not appear in the correct queue for the editorial staff. Full articles must be submitted as “revisions” of the white papers.
Special issue papers are invited by the Guest Editor(s) who should ensure that the articles meet the scope of GRSM. Thus, these papers do not require a white paper and should be submitted as full papers. They will then be assigned to members of the GRSM editorial board for the review process.
Column papers DO NOT require a White Paper submission. When submitting a column paper, please submit the full article at initial submission and ensure that you choose the appropriate column designation. Column papers must be five pages or less in IEEE double column format.
Open Access Charges
This publication is a hybrid journal, allowing either Traditional manuscript submission or Open Access (author-pays OA) manuscript submission. Upon submission, if you choose to have your manuscript be an Open Access article, you commit to pay the discounted $2,995 OA fee if your manuscript is accepted for publication to enable unrestricted public access. Any other application charges (such as overlength page charges) will be billed separately once the manuscript formatting is complete but before the publication. If you would like your manuscript to be a Traditional submission, your article will be available to qualified subscribers and purchasers via IEEE Xplore. No OA payment is required for Traditional submission.
Formatting
Full papers should be formatting according to IEEE instructions (journals.ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/submit-your-article-for-peer-review/the-ieee-…).
