Abstract

The results of the testing and operation of the Arktika-M highly elliptical orbit hydrometeorological space system are presented. The advantages of highly elliptical orbits, the main characteristics and tasks of the Arktika-M No. 1 satellite payload are considered. The description is given of the ground-based segment and resulting information products required to solve problems for the benefit of socioeconomic development of northern Russia.
