Applications In Global Environment And Natural Disaster Monitoring 1） Applications in world crop yield estimation China is now one of the few nations in the world that can provide operational service with both GEO and polar-orbit meteorological satellites. Global data obtained by FY-1C and FY-1D satellites, is widely used in environmental and natural disaster monitoring, such as forest and grassland fire monitoring, and severe weather events monitoring. This data together with the products generated from the FY-1 series satellite are also used for global change, global crop yield estimation, space weather monitoring and scientific activities.
