Answers
Kalpana-1 located at Longitude 74° E and Insat-3A located at 93.5° E both geostationary satellites are being used to monitor the weather of Indian region.
For meteorological observation, INSAT-3A carries a three channel Very High Resolution Radiometer (VHRR) with 2 km resolution in the visible band and 8 km resolution in thermal infrared and water vapour bands. In addition, INSAT-3A carries a Charge Coupled Device (CCD) camera which operates in the visible, near infra Red and short wave infrared bands providing a spatial resolution of 1 km. A Data Relay Transponder (DRT) operating in UHF band is incorporated for real-time hydro meteorological data collection from unattended platforms located on land and river basins. The data is then relayed in extended C-band to a central location. Kalpana -1 Satellite has a 3- Channel VHRR and DRT similar to INSAT -3A Satellite.   Your Comment
