Industrial police: CBERS-3,4 • CBERS 3&4 • Participation of • National Industry - 50% of sub-sistems • Structure • Telecom • Cameras • Energy suply Total of national contracts – US$150 million
Exemple of nacional achievements • Camera MUX (OPTO) • Main sensor on CBERS-3/4 • CCD with 5 bands and 20 m resolution
CBERS Distribution for neighboring countries Free distribution extended to the footprint of Cuibá ground Station
CBERS being considered as a potential gap filler for Landsat
CBERS2-B for Africa • Brasil and China agreed to grant a no-access fee of CBERS2-B to African countries. • South Africa and Spain will use their ground stations to receive, process and distribute CBERS data. • GEO offer GEOportal (web) and GEONETcast to reach the end user. • A coordinated effort in infrastructure Capacity Building for Earth Observations
CBERS program as a infrastructure capacity building • Ingestion system cost US$400K • Who pays? • Satellite owners? • Ground stations? • EO Donnors?
