1. MANUSCRIPT

1.1 Sheets for Papers and Typing

Prepare the camera-ready manuscripts in A4 paper sheet size 297 mm × 210 mm (11.69 × 8.27 inches).

Set upper margin to 26 mm and lower margin to 22 mm, left margin to 24 mm and right margin to 22 mm. The entire text is to be typed in a single wide column across the whole page.

The font and size should be Times New Roman 10pt, except the paper title, which should be 12pt. All text is to be single-spaced. Left and right justified typesetting is preferred. Do not set page numbers. All papers should be submitted in PDF format.

1.2 Length

All manuscripts are limited to 10 single-spaced pages, including the Title block, abstract, figures, tables and references.

Additional pages are not accepted.

1.3 Page Numbering

Do not type the page number on the manuscript sheet.

2. TITLE AND ABSTRACT BLOCKS

2.1 Title Block

The title should appear in bold capital letters without underlining, centered across the two columns, near the top of the first page of the paper. Use more than one line if you wish, but always use single spacing.

After one blank line type the author(s)’ name(s) and affiliation in upper and lower case letters centered under the title. In the case of multi-authorship, group them by firm or organization. Affiliation should include the institution(s) and the postal address.

For convenience of readers of the proceedings, it is recommended to include the e-mail address(es). A slight change of the title and authors of full paper from the submitted Abstract Form is accepted.

2.2 Key Words

Leave two blank lines under the Title Block. Type “KEY WORDS:” flush left in bold capital letters, followed by three to five English key words which are not included in the paper title.

2.3 Abstract

Leave one blank line under the key words. Type “ABSTRACT” flush left in bold capital letters followed by the abstract.

Please write a concise abstract, limited to 300 words, which presents in short the content and, very importantly, the news and results of the paper in words understandable also to a non-specialist.

The text must be always single spaced, without blank lines between paragraphs. Start paragraphs flush with left margin.

3. MAIN BODY OF TEXT

Type text single-spaced, with one blank line between paragraphs and headings. Start paragraphs flush with left margin.

3.1 Headings
MAJOR HEADINGS

Major headings or chapter headings are to be flush with the left margin, in bold capitals without underlining. Major headings are on a separate line between two single blank lines.

Subheadings

Type subheadings flush with the left margin, in bold upper case and lower case letters (Title Case). Subheadings are on a separate line between two single blank lines.

Sub-subheadings: Sub-subheadings are to be typed in bold upper case and lower case letters after one blank line flush with the left margin of the column, with text following on the same line.

Decimal numbering of all headings is appreciated. If there is no bold printing available to you, use underlining instead, but only for subheadings and sub-subheadings, not for major headings.

3.1 Header

Use ACRS 2026 logo (2.1 cm × 2.1 cm) and “47th Asian Conference on Remote Sensing (ACRS2026)” in the header of every page of the manuscript, as done in this template.

3.2 Footnotes

Avoid footnotes, but if you need them, mark footnotes in the text with an asterisk (*); use a double asterisk (**) for a second footnote on the same page.

3.3 References and/or Selected Bibliography

References should be cited in the text, thus (Smith, 1987b), and listed in alphabetical order in the reference section. The following arrangements should be used:
