Abstract:
      This paper first introduces the basic information, functions and missions of the GOES geostationary satellites. and then gives an overview of the development history, payload and satellite products of the first, second/improved second and third generation of GOES satellites. Meanwhile, the payload parameters and main applications of the advanced baseline imager, the geostationary lightning mapper and the extreme ultraviolet sensor/X-ray sensor irradiance sensors are introduced in detail. Finally, the development characteristics of GOES series satellites are summarized.
