Abstract

The rapid development of Geographic Information System (GIS) and remote sensing technologies have provided opportunities for GIS and remote sensing applications to be integrated into various practical fields over the past decades. Especially, GIS and remote sensing have led to significant breakthroughs in research related to natural resources, environment, disaster risk, geospatial databases, land use change and urbanization. In that context, The National Conference on GIS Application 2022: GIS and Remote Sensing Applications for Environment and Resource Management was held at the Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City - University of Science (VNU-HCM) during 11-12 November, 2022. The major objectives of the conference are to create a symposium for scientists, scholars, managers and stakeholders to exchange their research achievements, applications of GIS and remote sensing technologies in various fields of environmental and natural resource management as well as to propose development orientations for GIS and remote sensing technologies in the future.

With a great privilege, we would like to present IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science to readers. After rigorous reviews, thirty papers from the conference were selected to publish in this special issue. These papers represented cutting-edge research on a variety of subjects, including (a) agriculture and climate change; (b) environmental management; (c) geospatial database analysis; (d) land use change; and (e) natural resources management.

We appreciate the support provided by the Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City (VNUHCM) and the University of Science (VNUHCM-US) for the conference. We would like to express our gratitude to all conference participants for their papers and attendance. We also want to express our appreciation and gratitude to all the reviewers who have assisted us in maintain the quality reputation of the articles submitted for publication in the IOP proceedings. Finally, we would like to give special thanks to the conference organizer and to all others whose contributions made the publication of the special issue.
