The satellite will mainly monitor hydropower and water conservancy projects, reservoir bank slopes, dams and their surrounding geological environments, transportation corridors, as well as power transmission and transformation routes. It can acquire high-resolution radar remote sensing data, according to developers.
Its data can be applied to the identification of tiny surface deformation, assessment of engineering safety conditions, and risk analysis of geological disasters.
The satellite was co-developed by PowerChina Chengdu Engineering Corp, China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) and Spacety.
