The "Special Services for China's Flood Disaster Data in Summer 2020" website is jointly constructed by the National Earth Observation Science Data Center and the National Comprehensive Earth Observation Data Sharing Platform, which is operated and maintained by the Aerospace Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It currently provides typical examples of Poyang Lake, Chaohu Lake, and Taihu Lake. 64 basic geographic data sets of disaster-involved areas; remote sensing data from 9 high-resolution satellites including Gaofen-1, Gaofen-3, Gaofen-4, Gaofen-6, Jilin-1 and Zhuhai-1 before and after the disaster Collection; Phase 3 covers a 10-meter resolution SAR image product of Sentinel-1 satellite covering the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and main lakes, as well as data resources such as national flood dynamic monitoring information, with a total data volume of 557GB.

As of August 3, the number of professional users of the service website reached 2,588, with 151 real-name registered scientific research teams, and 22 scientific research projects supported. At the same time, it cooperated with the National Remote Sensing Center of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the High-tech Research and Development Center, and the National Science and Technology Infrastructure Platform Center to open technology cloud disk services for national key research and development projects, with a total download volume of more than 3.21TB.
Since the flood season this year, continuous heavy rainfall has occurred in many parts of China, and some provinces and cities have been hit by floods, causing casualties and property losses. The Aerospace Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences attached great importance to this and quickly organized personnel to deploy the website construction of the "Special Service for China's Flood Disaster Data in Summer 2020". According to the changes in China's flood disaster areas in summer, the service website will dynamically and continuously provide relevant data for the frontline flood control work. (Finish)
