About this model
Resourcesat-2 is one of the 203 3D models Space Radar made itself: a satellite, built in code from published dimensions and photographs, with no image-to-3D generator and no one else’s mesh.
Shape built from published dimensions and pictures; details simplified. It has 5,288 triangles in a 36 kB glTF file, and is 2.1 m across at full scale.
On Space Radar’s live map it is drawn for the object with NORAD catalogue number 37387, where its published orbit puts it now. Open it on the map.

eoPortal, eoportal.org/satellite-missions/resourcesat-2, OPENED 2026-10-27: 'The overall S/C size is about 2 m in diameter and 2.1 m in height. The total S/C mass at launch is ~1200 kg'; '6 Solar panels (1.4 x 1.8 m2 each) generate 1250 W of power at EOL'; 'The S/C structure consists of two modules, the main platform and the payload module'; 'The payload module deck accommodates LISS-3, AWiFS-A and AWiFS-B camera modules. The LISS-4 camera is mounted on a rotating deck'; 'Two star trackers are mounted with skewed orientation on the top deck'. OURS: the platform's 2.0 x 2.0 x 1.1 m box, the camera boxes' 0.55 m and places, the tower's hexagon, the wings' arms.
How it was made
Built in code from published dimensions and photographs, with no image-to-3D generator and no one else’s mesh. 3D model: built by Space Radar from published dimensions and ISRO's render of Resourcesat-2A (ISRO, GODL-India).
The full record
built by this project in code (the private tool model-from-images: assemble.py, from a yaml of primitives), from the cited dimensions and the pictures under `references`; no image-to-3D model was used, and no published mesh: NASA's 3D Resources (1 583 paths, read 2026-10-27) has none of these craft, and no agency named here publishes a model of its own under terms that allow one
Where the map uses it. NORAD 37387 (RESOURCESAT-2) and 41877 (RESOURCESAT-2A), in the active catalogue of 2026-10-26: ISRO's three-camera land-survey satellites on the IRS-P6 bus, a gold platform under a payload deck of camera modules and the LISS-4 tower, with two wings of three panels; public #1143
Licence note. ISRO's render of Resourcesat-2A (Commons, GODL-India: attribution, commercial use and derivatives allowed) was looked at for the layout, with credit; nothing of the picture is in the file. The shape is this project's, under this repository's licence, built from published numbers (facts). NO LOGO AND NO LETTERING is on the mesh.
