The GaoFen-7 (GF-7) satellite, which was launched on November 3, 2019, is China's first civilian submeter stereo mapping satellite. The satellite is equipped with the first laser altimeter officially in China for earth observation. Except for the laser altimeter, the GF-7 spaceborne laser altimeter system also includes two laser footprint cameras and a laser optical axis surveillance camera. The laser altimeter system is designed and used to assist improving the elevation accuracy without ground control points of the two line-array stereo mapping cameras. This article details the design of the GF-7 spaceborne laser altimeter system, its ranging performance in the laboratory, and its data processing method. The type of data products is also released. These data will play a vital role in the application of geography, glaciology, forestry, and other industries. |
