INSAT-3DR Satellite to Enable Detecting Farm Fires 

The Indian Weather Satellite, INSAT-3DR, launched by Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in September 2016, has led to a remarkable achievement in Indian weather forecasting. The Next Generation INSAT-3DR, will enable detecting Farm Fires, which was till now ISRO's GSLV-F05

rocket successfully puts INSAT-3DR only conducted by National Aeronautics (वायु-यान-विद्या) and Space Administration (NASA) thus helping in formulating effective measures to deal with the issue. The seasonal Farm Fires that leads to increasing the air pollution level in India’s northern region especially Delhi, is believed to be caused by burning the agro-residues in Haryana and Punjab during the October-November months that emits smoke causing air pollution. The satellite provides data at an average rate of 142 GB per day. The team of Satellite Meteorology Division scientists from the India Meteorological Department (IMDs) at Mausam Bhawan, New Delhi collected huge amount of data with the help of the satellite. INSAT-3DR also enables night time monitoring of atmospheric phenomenon like cloud cover(बादलों की छाया), fog, haze (धुन्ध)and snow among others.
