Aims and scope
Big Earth Data publishes gold open access research in the earth sciences, including earth system science, earth observation, earth systems monitoring, and environmental processes.

Big Earth Data aims to provide an efficient and high-quality platform for promoting the sharing, processing, and analyses of Earth-related big data, thereby revolutionizing the cognition of the Earth’s systems. The journal focuses on all aspects of big Earth data handling, including the theories, methods, algorithms, and technologies used for the collection, management, analysis, and visualization of big Earth data. To showcase the benefits of data-driven research, submissions on the applications of ‘big Earth data’ in exploring the Earth’s historical, present and future evolution are highly encouraged.

The journal accepts research on ‘big data’ studies relating to but are not limited to, the following topics:

Earth observation
Geography
Geology
Atmospheric science
Marine science
Geophysics
Geochemistry
As a pioneer in supporting Open Science, we go beyond Open Access to ensure the integrity, transparency, reusability, and reproducibility of scientific findings. We strongly encourage authors to make all supporting data, code, and methods openly and permanently available. Our journal adheres to the principles of open and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) data and research software.

To submit your article, please refer to our Instructions for Authors, which provide detailed information on the submission process.
