The Lijiang station, part of China's Remote Sensing Satellite Ground Station (RSGS), began official operation on September 27, 2024. The station, operated by the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), fills a critical gap by providing real-time satellite data reception in Southwest China.
The International Research Center of Big Data for Sustainable Development Goals (CBAS) released the “Big Earth Data in Support of the Sustainable Development Goals Report (2024)” during the Summit of the Future at the 79th United Nations General Assembly from September 22-23, offering a visionary roadmap for harnessing Big Earth Data to advance the Global Development Initiative and align with the UN’s "Pact with Future".
The Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences officially launched an advanced BeiDou Navigation and High-Resolution Remote Sensing Comprehensive Service Platform on September 21 during the inaugural Aerospace Information Technology Conference in Jinan, Shandong Province.
Researchers at the Aerospace Information Research Institute have recently launched the "RingMo" Version 3.0, a remote sensing interpretation foundation model with over 10 billion parameters. This cutting-edge model marks a significant advancement in automated, high-precision analysis of remote sensing data and is expected to make waves in the sectors such as emergency response, land management, marine monitoring, and urban development.
The QiTai Radio Telescope (QTT), the first major scientific research infrastructure project in China's northwest Xinjiang Autonomous Region, completed the final construction step for its track foundation girder ring beam on September 20, marking the beginning of the main antenna structure installation.
A major milestone was marked in the construction of High Energy Photon Source (HEPS) when electron beams with currents higher than 10mA were successfully stored in the HEPS storage ring on August 18, 2024. This achievement signifies the completion of the accelerator complex and the start of beam commissioning.
