A unit of Uspace, Gang Hang Ke, will spearhead the centre’s establishment, the company said in a filing with the Hong Kong stock exchange on Monday evening.
It said the new facility will focus on intelligent decision-making for satellite remote sensing data as well as AI-based satellite data processing and analysis to drive satellite-ground computing synergy, among others.
Gang Hang Ke was described by Uspace as a hi-tech enterprise focused on the integration of research and development as well as sales and services.
Uspace – previously known as Hong Kong Aerospace Technology Group, the first satellite manufacturer based in the city – developed and launched 12 satellites in 2021, as part of its “Golden Bauhinia Constellation” project.
The company’s latest initiative reflects its efforts to operate a network of more than 100 Golden Bauhinia satellites above the Greater Bay Area. It is expected to produce and launch the project’s remaining satellites before 2026.
