Raster Types for Chinese Satellite Imagery

ArcGIS Raster Types for Chinese Satellite Imagery extends ArcGIS's capability of managing and processing remote sensing images for the Chinese satellites.

This extension is compatible with ArcGIS 10.2 and beyond. The extension allows for support with the HJ, ZY02C, and ZY3 satellites which are distributed by China Centre for Resource Satellite Data and Application (CRESDA) and Satellite Surveying and Mapping Application Centre (SASMAC). The plug-in is a free downloadLink to download website.
