Xuancheng No.1 is a commercial satellite developed by a private organization in Anhui. From a technical point of view, Xuancheng-1 pioneered the precedent that LEO satellites carried both remote sensing load and communication load for the first time. Judging from the position of commercial satellites, Xuancheng-1 is a relatively successful commercial satellite in China, which is of great significance to the development of commercial satellites in China.
In foreign countries, commercial satellites are common. Well-known is the space exploration technology company of the United States, which completed the launch of the first commercial satellite in 20 13. By 2020, 60 satellite chains have been launched, making it a benchmark institution in the field of commercial satellites. Comparatively speaking, our domestic commercial satellites have just started. At present, there are more than 30 commercial satellite institutions with launch plans, but only a handful of them have successfully launched. As one of the successful launch cases, Xuancheng No.1 not only inspired the institutions being developed, but also proved its own strength. This achievement is a very rare breakthrough for Anhui, a traditional agricultural province.
Xuancheng-1 is a dual-mode satellite for communication and remote sensing. After the launch, it will focus on serving Anhui and the Yangtze River Delta, focusing on detecting data information such as natural resources, ecological environment, agriculture and rural areas, traffic management, emergency management, finance and insurance, and smart cities in these areas, and providing accurate data support for governments at all levels in the monitoring area.
The future era is the era of artificial intelligence and the era of big data. Commercial satellites have great commercial value abroad, creating a large number of employment opportunities and bringing huge local taxes. In the future, our domestic commercial satellites will give full play to their unique advantages within the scope permitted by law, realize a win-win situation of commercial value and commercial services, and help us accelerate our smart life.
