Implementation and analysis of remote sensing payload nanosattelite for deforestation monitoring in Indonesian forest

Nanosatellite is one type of artificial satellites are relatively small and lightweight mass, between 1 kg – 10 kg. Nanosatellite can be programmed to perform shared mission, one of which is for remote sensing. Remote sensing can be used for many purposes like to learn growth of a region, to create maps, to check weather condition, astronomy monitoring and etc. One of the remote sensing purposes that use in this research is for forest monitoring. Forest area in Indonesia is 120,084,434.79 Ha.
