以1991-2010年SCI和SSCI数据库中与遥感相关的论文为研究对象，采用地理影响因子（Geographical Impact Factor）对作者的地理影响力进行评价，揭示遥感研究的作者、机构、国家和时空格局。遥感研究在过去20年中显著增加。影像科学与摄影技术是重要的学科门类，《国际遥感杂志》是最活跃的期刊。所有作者主要集中在北美、西欧和东亚。来自美国农业部ARS的杰克逊TJ是最多产的作者，来自不列颠哥伦比亚省的Coops NC的文章质量更高，来自蒙大拿大学的Running SW的地理影响力最大。美国是全球遥感研究的最大贡献者，拥有最多的单一国家和国际合作论文，NASA是最强大的研究机构。遥感研究的国际合作明显增加。共词分析发现了共同的遥感平台和传感器，揭示了主要技术的广泛采用，并表现出对土地覆盖/土地利用、植被和气候变化的浓厚兴趣。此外，遥感研究与卫星发展密切相关。
According to the articles related to remote sensing of SCI and SSCI databases during 1991–2010, this study evaluated the geographical influence of authors by the new index (geographical impact factor), and revealed the auctorial, institutional, national, and spatiotemporal patterns in remote sensing research. Remote sensing research went up significantly in the past two decades. Imaging science & photographic technology was the important subject category.International Journal of Remote Sensingwas the top active journal. All authors were mainly concentrated in North America, Western Europe, and East Asia. Jackson TJ from USDA ARS was the most productive author, Coops NC from University of British Columbia had more high-quality articles, and Running SW from University of Montana carried the greatest geographical influence. The USA was the largest contributor in global remote sensing research with the most single-country and internationally collaborative articles, and the NASA was the most powerful research institute. The international cooperation of remote sensing research increased distinctly. Co-word analysis found the common remote sensing platform and sensors, revealed the widespread adoption of major technologies, and demonstrated keen interest in land cover/land use, vegetation, and climate change. Moreover, the remote sensing research was closely correlated with the satellite development.
