1 TITLE OF SECTION (E.G. INTRODUCTION)
This sample article is to show you how to prepare papers in a standard style for publishing in the “Recent Advances in Quantitative Remote Sensing” proceedings book. It illustrates the paper layout and describes points you should notice before you submit your papers.
The papers will be in A4 size with margins top 60 mm, left 35 mm, right 31 mm, and bottom 25 mm.A column separation of 4 mm is used.The text is preferably Times or Times Roman with font size 9 point.
2 PREPARATION OF A PAPER
2.1 Use of Templates
The papers should be prepared, using Microsoft Word (doc). The papers should conform in appearance to the example guidelines available from
2.2 Requirements
The contact email address of the authors shall be clearly indicated. The transmitted file when sent to the chairman will be zipped (compressed) and named with capital letters as follows: RAQRS followed by your identification number given in the acceptance letter and extension giving the file type (.ZIP, .DOC, etc).
2.3 Software used
The papers will be submitted in the following format.
a)Microsoft Word packed in a single Zipped file using the convention given above.
2.4 Figures
Figures and diagrams should be incorporated in black and white. Figures will either be entered in one column or two columns and should be 60 mm or 130 mm wide respectively. Diagrams or figures should be placed in the paper by authors.
Figures in colour should be placed separately at the end of the manuscript in order to place it further in the appendix of the proceedings. We would be grateful if you would submit a bitmap format (eg. TIFF) to keep the best quality. A special issue will be printed at the back of the proceedings book, black and white will appear in position within the article.
2.5 Equations
The paper should be prepared in Word with the appropriate equation editor. Each equation should appear on a new line with uniform spacing from adjacent text as indicated in this template. The equations, where they are referred to in the text, should be numbered sequentially and their identifier enclosed in parenthesis, right justified.
E=mc2 / (1)3 GENERAL STYLE PREFERENCES
3.1 Style of Writing
Papers are accepted on the basis that they may be edited for style and language. The author himself is responsible for the correctness of the scientific content.
Abbreviations should be spelt out in full the first time they appear and their abbreviated form included in brackets immediately after.
3.2 Paper length / file size
Page limits can not exceed 6 for the oral and poster papers.
The electronic submission file should not exceed 10 Megabyte in length and authors are requested to submit the file in zipped format where possible.
3.3 Units and symbols
