Media Coverage

In a local media interview, Prof. Charles WONG, Associate Dean of the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE), Management Committee Member of the Research Institute for Land and Space (RILS), and Professor in the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI), and Dr XU Bing, Assistant Professor in the Department of Aeronautical and Aviation Engineering (AAE), shared PolyU’s recent signing of MoU with the Hong Kong Aerospace Technology Group for enhanced collaboration on remote sensing and aerospace research to facilitate smart city development.

The conventional optical remote sensing and synthetic aperture radar observation data obtained in the future will be of high-definition, with an image resolution of less than 1 meter. PolyU was also granted the right to name the satellite which will be launched next year, and will be able to operate and use the satellite at that time.
