EGYPTIAN JOURNAL FOR REMOTE SENSING AND SPACE SCIENCES: INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS

A. General layout of manuscripts and figures:

1. All paper and figures should be sent on CD.

2. The font type of all papers should be Times New Roman 11.

3. The title should appear in bold capital letters without underlining (Times New Roman with a size of 12). Use more than one line if you wish.
