Networking Observation and Applications of Chinese Ocean Satellites

This paper presents the networking observation capabilities of Chinese ocean satellites and their diverse applications in ocean disaster prevention, ecological monitoring, and resource development. Since the inaugural launch in 2002, China has achieved substantial advancements in ocean satellite technology, forming an observation system composed of the HY-1, HY-2, and HY-3 series satellites. These satellites are integral to global ocean environmental monitoring due to their high resolution, extensive coverage, and frequent observations. Looking forward, China aims to further enhance and expand its ocean satellite capabilities through ongoing projects to support global environmental protection and sustainable development.
