📋 Tender Overview
China National Space Administration held a ceremony in Beijing for the launch of the Land Exploration No. 1 01 group of satellites. Li Guoping, chief engineer of the China National Space Administration, attended the ceremony. Representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Emergency Management, the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation and other units attended the ceremony and jointly signed the certificate of satellite commissioning, and the relevant units of satellite operation signed the long-term operation and management agreement of the satellite.
The Land Exploration-1 Group 01 satellite is a scientific research satellite in the Medium and Long-term Development Plan for National Civil Space Infrastructure (2015-2025), which consists of two satellites, A and B. In 2023, the two satellites will complete the in-orbit test, and the satellites are in good condition, and their performance meets the general requirements of satellite engineering development and application system requirements, and they are ready for use. The satellite photographed the national cloudy and rainy areas and some international cloudy and rainy areas in the dual-satellite orbiting mode, and photographed the typical deformation areas in China in the dual-satellite follow-up mode, produced 372 maps of various types, and generated national orthophotos, digital surface models of some cloudy and rainy areas, deformation field products of typical deformation areas, and various emergency and forestry and grass monitoring products, including Zhouqu debris flow, landslide in Ankang area of Shaanxi, land use classification in Beijing and other places, digital surface models in Yunnan and other places, Sichuan Luding earthquake, Inner Mongolia mining disaster, distribution of forests/non-forests in Hainan Province, etc.
After the satellite is put into use, it will closely focus on geology, land, disaster reduction, surveying and mapping, earthquake, forestry and grassland and other industries to carry out services, provide high-resolution operational deformation monitoring services in the geological industry, expand business for surface classification and feature identification in the land industry, expand digital orthophoto business for surveying and mapping, serve the emergency response to major national disasters, major national earthquake disasters, forest, grass and forest resources monitoring, etc., and gradually expand the application and promotion of foreign data to serve the "Belt and Road" initiative.
