SRIHARIKOTA: Within 18 days of launching the next generation launch vehicle GSLV Mk-III rocket, the Indian Space Research Organisation successfully completed another mission as the PSLV-C38 rocket launched the earth observation Cartosat-2E satellite and 30 nanosatellites into their designated orbit on Friday.

The pictures and videos of Cartosat-2E would be helpful in a wide range of activities including military and civil planning. The imageries from the Cartosat-2 series satellite can be used for cartographic applications, urban and rural applications, coastal land use and regulation, utility management like road network monitoring, water distribution, creation of land use maps, change detection to bring out geographical and man-made features and various other Land Information System and Geographical Information System applications.
