Data from two spectroradiometers are used to monitor forest and steppe fires and to rapidly verify hotspots. The data update frequency depends on satellite passes over the area of ​​interest, averaging about 4–5 times per day. No thermal points are recorded if there are no thermal anomalies in the specified area.

The tool allows users to view archival imagery from the MODIS imaging systems on the Terra and Aqua satellites (spatial resolution ranging from 250 m to 1 km), the Landsat/MS satellite (30 m spatial resolution for multispectral channels), and the Landsat-8 Pan-Sharpened satellite (15 m spatial resolution following the pan-sharpening process). After selecting the area, satellite, and imaging period, users can view satellite imagery that meets the specified parameters. The tool's icon features a white pair of binoculars on a brown background.

Daily Planet.com imagery with 3m resolution.

4 times a day, every 6 hours.

Yes, by analyzing images taken at different times, it is possible to identify the start date and duration of a fire, as well as determine the date of logging.

Yes, by calculating the thematic indices NDSI and NDWI from imagery, it is possible to determine the state of the ice (stable, weakening, breakup, and ice drift).

Yes, by analyzing the NDVI spectral index over time using satellite imagery, it is possible to monitor river delta formation processes and delta water regimes (such as assessing vegetation encroachment, seaward progradation, or erosion).

Yes, by utilizing the results of topographic and bathymetric surveys, as well as hydrometeorological data derived from imagery, it is possible to model flood scenarios—that is, to generate advance forecasts.

Since Kazakhstan's spacecraft are optical Earth remote sensing satellites, imaging is performed only during daylight hours.

Updating 1:10,000 scale maps and creating 1:25,000 scale maps.

It is only possible to distinguish a cargo vehicle from a passenger vehicle.

Only freestanding ones.

Yes, and very actively.

Up to 1 meter, provided a large number of ground control points (GCPs) are used.

2 m in plan, 4 m in height.

KazEOSat-2: 1–4 days via FTP; KazEOSat-1: 3 days or more, due to the mandatory review procedure by the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Kazakhstan via FTP.

Yes, it is possible; the authenticity of the image content can be confirmed, if necessary, by an official letter from the operator (this has been done on multiple occasions).

No, it's impossible.

No, it is only possible to identify what is on the Earth's surface within the scale of the image.

No, because the water surface in the image is not always transparent, and the revisit frequency for the same area is at least three days.

Once a day, usually before lunch (not every day, but once every three days).

No, because the presence of cloud cover necessitates re-imaging.

KazEOSat-1 satellite imagery provides high spatial resolution—1 meter. This resolution allows us to discern the shape of objects measuring at least one meter. However, for full object recognition, the object must be at least 10 pixels in size—that is, 10 by 10 meters.

Therefore, it is not possible to identify people, livestock, or vehicles in the high-resolution imagery.

KazEOSat-1: может различать небольшие объекты, такие как отдельные здания, силуэты транспортных средств и другие крупные элементы городской инфраструктуры.

KazEOSat-2: способен различать более крупные объекты, такие как кварталы, дороги, силуэты мостов, большие здания и сельскохозяйственные поля.   

Nighttime imaging: KazEOSat series satellites do not capture images at night because they use optical sensors that require sunlight to acquire images.

Static imaging: Since the satellites move along an orbit rather than remaining stationary over a single point on Earth, they can capture images from various angles and at different times. However, it is not possible to remain fixed over a single point to take photographs continuously.

Imaging schedule: To obtain satellite imagery promptly, you must first contact JSC NC Kazakhstan Gharysh Sapary and provide details regarding the imaging mode, timing, geographic coordinates, and dimensions of the area of ​​interest; based on this information, the spacecraft operations team will notify you regarding the feasibility of the imaging.

KazEOSat-1 is recommended for detailed tasks such as urban planning, road network analysis, or infrastructure monitoring.

KazEOSat-2 is a suitable choice when coverage of large areas is required, for instance, for agricultural monitoring or tracking changes over extensive territories.
