Short summary
Towards the complex observation requirements of Fengyun-4 (FY-4) satellites, a new generation of geostationary meteorological satellites from China, instrument observation strategies are proposed on which the instruments' in-orbit daily observations must be based. The strategies have been successfully used in FY-4A in-orbit tests for more than a year. Both the simulation results and in-orbit application results are given to demonstrate the validity of the strategies.
