Currently, Oceansat-2 and Oceansat-3 are operational.
ISRO has launched three Oceansat Earth observation satellites, starting with Oceansat-1 in May 1999.
Oceansat-2 was launched in September 2009 and was configured to cover global oceans and provide continuity of ocean color data with global wind vector and characterization of the lower atmosphere and ionosphere.
EOS-06 is the third-generation satellite in the Oceansat series and provides continued services of Oceansat-2 with enhanced payload capability.
EOS-06 is the third-generation Earth observation satellite in India’s Oceansat series designed to provide continuity of Oceansat-2 services with enhanced payload specifications.
OrbAstro expects its first satellite to launch in January 2022 as a secondary payload on an Indian Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle carrying ISRO’s Oceansat 3.
Kinéis has one final Argos hosted payload awaiting launch on India’s Oceansat-3 satellite in mid-2020 through a partnership with the Indian Space Research Organisation.
The Oceansat-3 mission is scheduled to launch in 2020 to provide continuity of Argos service if an older Argos satellite is decommissioned.
Kinéis plans two additional Argos payloads before fielding its smallsat constellation: a 12-unit cubesat called ANGELS and a hosted payload on India’s Oceansat-3 satellite.
