Abstract:

Water quality monitoring and assessment are crucial for sustainable use of water resources and the preservation of aquatic ecosystems. Remote sensing technology, with its unique capability for long-distance detection, offers rapid, efficient, wide-coverage, and high-precision monitoring, and it is particularly suitable for large-scale, dynamic water environment surveillance. In recent years, China has made remarkable progress in the field of remote sensing satellite technology. The successful deployment and continuous high-quality data output of the domestic high-resolution satellite series have brought new opportunities for realizing advanced water quality monitoring. This paper systematically reviews and summarizes the current applications of data obtained from the Gaofen satellite series for water quality monitoring, focusing on the remote-sensing inversion of key water-quality parameters. Furthermore, it outlines future research directions, including the integration of multi-source data, optimization of algorithms and models, and the development of theoretical models. This study provides detailed references for the future development and research on water quality monitoring using domestic satellites.

Key words: water quality monitoring, remote sensing technology, domestic Gaofen satellite, water quality parameter inversion, water environmental protection
