According to the China National Space Administration (CNSA), China's new generation Fengyun-3A weather satellite became fully operational on Monday.
The China Meteorological Administration has officially taken control of China's new generation of polar-orbiting weather satellites.
The Fengyun-3 series of satellites are China's second generation of Polar-Orbiting Meteorological Satellites, which provide global 3-dimensional atmospheric thermal image.
Their technology supports short-range weather forecasting and real-time monitoring of meteorological or hydrological disasters. They can also provide data to support research on global climate change.
The Fengyun-3A, together with the Fengyun-1D and Fengyun-2C, D and E, will form a satellite constellation to offer global around-the-clock weather monitoring.
