China adopts aviation ice radar technology for the first time to conduct a typical glacier reserve survey

On December 20th, based on the construction of the national major scientific and technological infrastructure “Aerial Remote Sensing System”, the Xinzhou 60 remote sensing aircraft and the certificate remote sensing aircraft were equipped with aerial ice radar and 3D LiDAR to carry out glacier perspective detection in Laohugou Glacier No. 12, Qiyi Glacier, and Ningcaohe Glacier No. 3 in Gansu Province. This is the first time in China that a typical glacier reserve survey has been conducted based on aviation ice radar technology, which can provide key data support for water resource management and decision-making in various watersheds of the Hexi Corridor, ecological environment protection in the Qilian Mountains, and regional sustainable development.
