L-SAR 01B, built by SAST, will be used to monitor Earth's geological environment, landslides and earthquakes. It can radar image the land surface in high-definition. L-SAR 01 is a satellite group composed of two satellites equipped with L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR), namely the L-SAR 01A and the L-SAR 01B. L-SAR 01A was sent into space on 26 January. The two satellites will be tasked with providing round-the-clock, all-weather observation data to support land resource, mapping, forestry, and disaster prevention and relief uses. They will significantly strengthen rapid response capabilities in the event of a natural disaster.
