Reviews and Prospect of International Electromagnetic Seismic Satellite

A large number of space-to-earth observation results show that there is a clear correlation between the space electromagnetic disturbances and the occurrence of earthquakes. So, the application of satellite to capture electromagnetic precursors is one of the most effective means of short-term and impending earthquake prediction, which promotes the development of electromagnetic seismic satellites. Some countries have carried out satellite observations of space electromagnetic phenomena one after another. The phenomena of space electromagnetic anomalies observed before the earthquake were reported. In recent years, the international electromagnetic seismic satellite project mainly includes: PREDVESTNIK-E, COMPASS-II, QUAKESAT, DEMETER, etc. In this paper, the current status of the international electromagnetic seismic satellites in orbit is investigated. The management mission characteristics of electromagnetic seismic satellites are analyzed and summarized. The development plan of satellite projects in the field of electromagnetic earthquake monitoring is investigated. The development trend of satellite application in earthquake disaster monitoring is prospected.
