The snowstorm is one of the main disasters in prairie pastoral areas of China. Once the snowstorm happens, the human and the domestic animals in prairie pastoral areas will suffer the total destruction in a short time. Therefore, it is especially important to forecast the risk of the snowstorm disaster scientifically and reasonably. This paper proposed the snowstorm disaster risk assessment model in pastoral areas based on environment & disaster monitoring and predicting small satellite. After the massive experiment monitors and the contrast confirmation with the disaster situation data in National Disaster Reduction Center, the model forecasting result and the disaster situation statistical data have good uniformity from the space position and the risk degree. Case study shows that the snowstorm disaster risk assessment model is practical and feasible, and it provides important scientific method to further improve snowstorm disaster risk assessment ability in pastoral areas.
