Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
2022.6: Submission
2022.6: Rejected and resubmitted. The associate editor mentioned the need to include several types of crops for further validation of the algorithm's effectiveness.
2022.9: During the summer break, multiple locations were revisited to collect various crops, and the paper was resubmitted.
2022.11: Major revision. Three reviewers provided more than 150 comments. The first reviewer felt there was a lack of innovation, but the latter two believed that the modifications made the paper acceptable.
2023.1: Returned for revision.
2023.3: Major revision. No major issues, mainly focused on an efficiency problem with the algorithm and language-related matters.
2023.4: Returned for revision.
2023.5.11: Accepted directly.
The chief editor and editors of ISPRS are very reliable. It feels like they remind reviewers to provide feedback after about two weeks. So, even though my process involved rejection, resubmission, major revision, and acceptance, it took less than a year overall. The opinions of the three external reviewers were very helpful, and the paper has significantly improved since the beginning.
It's a great achievement to have my first remote sensing journal publication! I'm also thrilled that it is my second publication in a Tier 1 journal during my doctoral studies.

8.6 Submitted to journal - Submitted for publication, received by editor on the same day, under review on the next day.
10.15 Major revision - Received comments from the first round of review, two reviewers suggested major revisions, and the associate editor also provided comments as an individual reviewer, so there were a total of three reviewers.
11.09 With editor - Revised the manuscript according to the comments from the first round of review, conducted additional experiments, and wrote a response of 12,000 words, which was longer than the main text. Sent back to the editor on the same day.
11.25 Decision in process - The editor is making a decision.
12.04 Accepted - The paper has been accepted.

This was my first submission to ISPRS and it was accepted after only one round of major revisions. The process was very fast, and the most important factor was the professionalism of the reviewers and associate editor, who provided valuable suggestions that greatly improved the quality of the paper. The difficulty of submission was high, with high requirements for the quality of the article. Once major revisions were given, it was important to seize the opportunity and make thorough modifications.
