Abstract
Leading companies in the field of obtaining data from Earth remote sensing from space are building Satellite constellations to increase the frequency (multiplicity) and monitor various parts of the Earth’s surface. The Satellite constellation remote sensing equipment from Airbus (France) allows daily observation of any point on the Earth’s surface with high spatial resolution, and the grouping of DigitalGlobe (USA) – with ultra-high spatial resolution. The analysis of the mutual exploitation of the national space systems of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the Republic of Belarus has been carried out. There have been analyzed the joint capabilities of VNREDSat-1 (Vietnam) and BKA (Belarus) Earth Observation Systems for the monitoring of natural resources, the environment and natural disasters by comparison of their space and temporal characteristics (orbit parameters and re-visit time) as well as spectral-energetic characteristics (space, spectral and radiometric resolutions). The accepted correlation of technical parameters for solving the previously mentioned tasks having into account the different phases of the mentioned satellites has been determined. The conclusions have been reinforced by the results of live experiments with archival and instant data from both EO satellites.
