ISA chief Hassan Salarieh said on Monday that the satellites are in their final technical stages and the exact launch date will be announced soon.
He said Zafar, Paya, and Kowsar were developed by Iranian engineers from various knowledge-based companies in collaboration with the ISA.
Zafar is an advanced earth-observation satellite designed to deliver high-resolution imagery for agriculture, environmental monitoring, and disaster management.
Paya, also an observation satellite, will provide detailed imaging and data collection for multiple applications.
Kowsar focuses on precision agriculture, offering daily imagery to track crop health, vegetation, and resource use.
Salarieh said the satellites will supply critical data for monitoring crops, exploring minerals, and tracking dust storms.
He added that construction of the Salmas and Chenaran space stations is nearing completion, with both expected to become operational soon.
Iran is cooperating with China on international lunar research projects and working with Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) member states in scientific collaborations, he said.
Salarieh noted that the agency is updating Iran’s 10-year space document, which will guide the country’s space development strategy for the next decade.
The plan aims to expand satellite-based services to improve decision-making and operations in agriculture, environmental protection, and crisis management.
Iran entered the space field in February 2009 with the launch of its first domestically made satellite, Omid (Hope), aboard a Safir rocket.
Since then, the country has launched several satellites despite Western sanctions, advancing its capabilities in satellite data processing and space technology.
