Abstract
Small satellites have become an important supplementary part of meteorological monitoring due to their low cost, high flexibility, and networking advantages. They can monitor multiple atmospheric parameters, wind fields, clouds, and precipitation, enhancing traditional observation methods and collaborating with large satellites to improve spatial and temporal data resolution. Its application has expanded from technical exploration to practice, supporting weather forecasting and disaster warning. In the future, as sensor accuracy improves and intelligent networking integrates with AI, its applications will expand into urban fine services and polar monitoring, promoting the creation of a complete industrial ecosystem. Small satellites are reshaping the pattern of meteorological monitoring and providing key support for building an efficient global meteorological service system.
