2 OUTLINE Overview Key instruments onboard FY-3D Products and data service In-orbit testing plan

3 FENGYUN LEO Satellites Overview FengYun LEO Satellites Polar System FY-3 C/D to E/F/G/R Transition First Generation FY-1 A, B, C, D FY-3 C/D FY-3 E/F/G/R Second Generation FY-3 A, B, C, D, E, F, G, R FY-3 A/B Expected until yrs 5 yrs 8 yrs Designing lifetime

4 New baby: FY-3D Launched on 15, Dec FY-3D, is the fourth satellite in China s second generation polarorbiting meteorological satellite family. FY-3D is a satellite with the largest number of spectral measurement channels (over 7000) in China, which will greatly enhance the capacity to detect the low-level atmospheric dynamic parameters, thermal parameters, GHGs and high-level atmospheric electric fields, magnetic fields and energetic particles of the earth. FY-3D will shift to operation as the primary afternoon orbit satellite and co-work with FY-3C in morning orbit.

5 Current FENGYUN Satellite Missions FY Program: 9 on the orbit, 6 in operation, 2 in trial operation FY-3C + FY-3D, AM+PM, global coverage 4 times per day FY-3B FY-3C Tansat FY-3D FY-2E 86.5 FY-4A FY-2G 105 FY-2F 112 FY-2D FY-3A 5
