The launch of Pakistan's indigenous Electro-Optical (EO-1) Satellite on January 17, 2025, marks a momentous milestone in Pakistan's space journey.
The EO-1 satellite offers substantial benefits across various sectors in Pakistan. In agriculture, it will enable precision farming by monitoring crops, assessing irrigation needs, predicting yields, and supporting food security initiatives. For urban development planning, the satellite will assist in tracking infrastructure growth and managing urban sprawl.
In environmental monitoring and disaster management, it will provide timely updates on floods, landslides, earthquakes, deforestation, and land erosion. Additionally, it will support the monitoring of minerals, oil and gas fields, glacier recession, and water resources.
This achievement is set to position advanced space technology at the forefront of national progress and development, aligning with the goals of the National Space Policy.
