BEIJING, Dec. 10 (China Space News) — The China National Space Administration Tuesday released the first batch of three-dimensional images based on the data from the recently launched Gaofen-7 Earth observation satellite.<\/p>\n
The Gaofen-7, an important part of China’s high-definition Earth observation project, is the country’s first civil-use optical transmission three-dimensional surveying and mapping satellite that reaches the sub-meter definition.<\/p>\n
The 22 images unveiled show the Beijing Capital International Airport, the new Beijing Daxing International Airport, as well as some regions in China’s Anhui, Guangdong and Shandong provinces. Airplanes, vehicles, buildings and trees can be clearly seen in the images.<\/p>\n
The satellite, launched from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China’s Shanxi Province on Nov. 3, is in orbit at an altitude of 506 km and has a design life of eight years. More than 14,000 images have been obtained by the satellite.<\/p>\n
