  Abstract: Soil contamination by heavy metals is a pressing global environmental concern, impacting ecosystem health, agricultural productivity, and human well-being. In Vietnam, rapid economic growth and industrialisation exacerbate these concerns, with diverse landscapes and intensive land use practices increasing susceptibility to heavy metal pollution. This study provides an overview of the assessment of soil heavy metal contamination, focusing on proximal spectroscopy and hyperspectral remote sensing techniques and their potential application in …
