Abstract PDF: Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) is conducting continuous quality control to provide reliable optical image products to various users. This paper describes KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellites (KOMPSAT-3 and KOMPSAT-3A) characteristics, operation, and image collection mode in order to enhance satellite image application. Also, image product of the satellites and quality management of the image product are described in this paper. The KOMPSAT-3 launched in 2012 and KOMPSAT-3A launched in 2015 collected many imageries around the world and provide them to users through web.
