Jilin 1 satellites are a series of Chinese commercial remote sensing satellites for infra-red imaging within the Jilin-1 constellation designed and owned by the Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co.

The payload of this series of satellites is a long-wave infrared camera, which can detect the ocean, hotspot targets and the atmosphere, obtain the target?s radiometric information, and then analyze the target based on the atmosphere, land and ocean models. Realize the measurement of infrared radiation characteristics.

Some satellites carry a GNSS occultation detection payload for Yunyao Aerospace.
