Nucleon electromagnetic form factors are the fundamental quantities that are related to a two-dimensional view of the charge and magnetization distribution in the nucleon. They are essential in understanding the nucleon electromagnetic structure. In this article, we briefly summarize the recent experimental progress on this topic, and introduce several experiments related to the nucleon electromagnetic form factors in the near future.
