Cartosat2F

Cartosat-2F is an Earth observation satellite developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It is part of the Cartosat-2 series of satellites, designed to provide high-resolution imagery for various applications. These applications include urban planning, rural resource and infrastructure development, and coastal zone management. The satellite carries a panchromatic camera that captures images with a resolution of better than one meter. This high resolution allows for detailed mapping and monitoring of the Earth's surface.

Cartosat-2F was launched on January 12, 2018, aboard the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) C40 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, India. The satellite is designed to operate in a sun-synchronous polar orbit, ensuring consistent illumination conditions for its imaging sensor. Its mission objective is to further enhance ISRO's capabilities in providing timely and precise geospatial information. The data acquired by Cartosat-2F is utilized by various government agencies and researchers for a wide range of analytical purposes, contributing to better decision-making in areas such as disaster management and environmental monitoring. Its advanced imaging capabilities make it a valuable asset in India's growing satellite constellation.
