The UE “Geoinformation systems” was determined as the organization operating the BSSERS by the No. 464 Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus dated October 22, 2003 “On the creation of the Belarusian space system for remote sensing of the Earth”.

Subsequently, the Enterprise was designated as the National Operator of the Belarusian Space System for Earth Remote Sensing (hereinafter referred to as BSSERS) in order to operate the BSSERS and the Belarusian satellite, as well as interacting with organizations involved in the exploration and use of outer space for peaceful purposes (the No. 609 Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus of December 22, 2004 "On the implementation of the state policy of the Republic of Belarus in the field of exploration and use of outer space for peaceful purposes").
Within the Belarusian Space System for Earth Remote Sensing (BSRSE) there were created its relevant orbital and ground segments.

Initially, the orbital segment consisted of the Belarusian satellite (BS) and the Kanopus-V No. 1 satellite (developed by JSC VNIIEM Corporation with international cooperation of different enterprises), both launched into orbit on July 22, 2012.
Guided by the Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Belarus and the Government of the Russian Federation on cooperation in the field of exploration and use of outer space for peaceful purposes dated March 15, 2011, on January 21, 2020, an Agreement was concluded on expanding the capabilities of the orbital constellation of remote sensing satellites by using the information resource of the Russian Kanopus-V No. 3, 4, 5, 6 and Kanopus-V-IK satellites.

The ground segment, which includes the Mission Control Center and the Telemetry, Tracking, Ranging and Commanding Center, contains hardware and software for receiving imaging requests, planning, images acquisition, processing, storage and dissemination of remote sensing data from space.

Data application fields:
- Inventory of natural resources (agricultural and forest lands, pastures, etc.) and monitoring of economic processes to ensure rational activity in rural, forestry, and other sectors of the state economy;
- Generation and updating of topographic maps, general geographic and thematic maps, management of state topographic maps and of the state topographic monitoring;
- Creation of digital elevation models;
- Monitoring of the pollution and degradation of the natural environment;
- Disasters monitoring (floods, droughts, landslides, etc.);
- State environmental monitoring;
- Inventory and control of construction of infrastructure facilities;
- and so on.
