Is he working in this project? If so, isnt this information confidential?
No but he got access to the scientific paper that is available to him since he is member of Chinese academy science and participate in planning, and design of Gaofen series of satellite

I came to Wuhan University again to interview Academician Li Deren, and I felt very cordial. I still remember that the last time was on December 30, 2018. The reporter listened to the theme report of Academician Li Deren on "Review and Prospect of the Development of Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing Technology in my country" in the Humanities Museum of Wuhan University. Academician Li Deren was very excited for 2 hours. Gao, speak in one breath and explain profound professional knowledge in a simple way. It is really a feast of surveying and mapping knowledge!
Recently, the "China Surveying and Mapping" magazine invited Academician Li Deren for an exclusive interview with the theme of "Earth Observation Satellite System", which made it possible. In September, Wuhan was overcast and rainy, and the temperature dropped, but perhaps I was yearning for it. I only felt that the sweet osmanthus fragrance all the way and the beautiful scenery everywhere.
Passing through the teaching area of the Department of Informatics, walking into the State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing, stepped up the steps quickly, and gently stepped into the office of Academician Li Deren. His secretary told reporters that Academician Li Deren had just finished his long mission and is now Access information.
At that time, the 18th International Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (Committee on Earth Observation Satellites) will be held in China in 2004, and Minister Xu Guanhua will serve as the rotating chairman. Therefore, since 2002, on behalf of Minister Xu Guanhua, I have participated in the preparatory work of the committee. At the same time, I have worked with more than a dozen academicians to write a consultation report and recommend the development of China's high-resolution Earth observation system to the central leadership.
The central leadership approved and supported it and included it in the mid- and long-term science and technology development plan. In 2005, the Ministry of Science and Technology established an expert group to discuss and discuss the country’s medium and long-term development plans from 2006 to 2020. I was fortunate enough to participate in the high-tech group, resources and ecological environment group and national defense group, and finally formed 16 major national special projects. Among them, there are three special projects related to our surveying and mapping-high-resolution earth observation system, manned spaceflight and lunar exploration project, and Beidou global satellite navigation system.
Academician Wang Liheng of the Space Administration of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology led me and other experts to plan a total of 14 satellites after years of research, which are what we now call high-resolution earth observation satellites, of which 1-7 are civilian satellites and 8-14 are military. satellite. These 14 stars can be said to be "military-civilian integration, complete variety", including optical and radar satellites, from geosynchronous orbit satellites to sun-synchronous orbit satellites, and basically meet the needs of China's national defense construction, economic development, and people's lives.
The spatial resolution of the optical satellite reaches 0.1m~0.5m; the resolution of the radar satellite reaches 0.5m~1m, and has full polarization data; the resolution of the two geosynchronous orbit satellites is 50m and 15m respectively; the imaging band of the hyperspectral remote sensing satellite More than 360; the ground width of the 16m resolution wide remote sensing satellite reaches 800km.
There are two surveying and mapping satellites in the Gaofen special project, one is the Gaofen-7 launched last year, and the other is the Gaofen-14. Gaofen-7 is characterized by a dual-line array three-dimensional surveying and mapping function, and a laser profile altimetry system. The Gaofen-14 satellite was built by Belarus when it was planned and is currently under construction and has not yet been launched into the sky.
Reporter: Among the 14 high-resolution satellites, radar satellites have a relatively small proportion. Are there any plans for follow-up?
Li Deren: Currently we have C-band, S-band, and X-band satellites, but no L-band satellites. We will supplement X-band radar satellites. X-band helps to ensure the accuracy of three-dimensional measurement and deformation measurement; L-band interferometric synthetic aperture radar satellites can measure the terrain and surface changes covered by vegetation. In addition, we have started a satellite plan for space infrastructure from 2020 to 2030, in which there are multiple radar satellites. This year, we have launched a multi-modal and intelligent high-resolution satellite (0.42m resolution), which is a successful case of the national infrastructure satellite after the high-score special project.
Reporter: After 15 years of development, the major special projects of high-resolution earth observation satellites can be said to be fruitful. How would you rate this achievement?
Li Deren: First, we Chinese have made our country's satellite remote sensing and its applications catch up with the world's advanced level through self-reliance and independent innovation. The best satellite in the United States is the Keyhole, which has a resolution of 0.1m. Our Gaofen 11 can also meet this standard. Second, China’s satellite data self-sufficiency rate has reached over 85%, 2005 Before 1 year, we basically bought foreign satellite data, which was expensive. When we participated in the formulation of the national medium and long-term science and technology development plan, we set the goal at that time to increase the satellite data self-sufficiency rate to more than 60%. After 15 years of hard work, the goal is now exceeded. my country's satellite data not only meets the needs of our country, It can also be exported; thirdly, the total amount of data collected by our satellite has reached about 1500PB, which is the country with the largest stock in the world. These data support the needs of my country's national defense construction, economic development, and people's livelihood. Fourth, the high-scoring special technology of Earth observation satellites has also supported a new generation of national space infrastructure plans and promoted the development of the commercial aerospace industry that began in 2014.
