First set of images from FY-3H meteorological satellite released

The first set of images have been acquired based on the observational data from some of its already-activated payloads onboard. Building on its capability for multi-element atmospheric remote sensing detection, including temperature, humidity, clouds, FY-3H will simultaneously acquire remote sensing information on global greenhouse gases, auroras, and others.

In terms of global observation, FY-3H maintains its optical imaging capability at the sub-100-meter level, with its spectral imager enabling multi-spectral, seamless global observations on a daily basis. Microwave instruments onboard can conduct multi-spectral global observations, thereby acquiring key parameter variables across multiple spheres of the Earth system to support core meteorological services like numerical weather prediction (NWP).
