The network is headquartered in Beijing and features three ground stations in a suburb in Beijing, Kashgar in Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region and Sanya in Hainan province, respectively.
It will be used to support various remote-sensing systems, especially for the western part of the country and the South China Sea, according to the examination committee.
