China has begun plans to create a constellation of 36 low-orbit satellites to collect
China is not the only country thatuses satellites to prevent natural disasters. Currently, 61 satellites from all over the world are involved in the international disaster prevention project. This network operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, ensuring that no disaster goes unnoticed or unaccounted for.
The European Space Agency also uses satellites to monitor cyclones, earthquakes, fires, volcanic eruptions and floods.
Jianqiang added that China's new satelliteThe network will also provide high-resolution imagery to help experts detect and analyze millimeter-level geologic deformations. This will help to better assess and predict “geological disasters such as landslides, precipitation and collapse”.
The official added that the satellite data “incombined with geological exploration and monitoring data from ground-based sensors "will increase the" accuracy and timeliness of disaster predictions. " As a result, the government and citizens will have more time to prepare for such events.
Last April, China also began work on a giant constellation of 13,000 Internet satellites. It is reported that they will operate in different frequency bands.
