The paper considers the prerequisites for the creation of satellite systems of small satellites of the CubeSat type for heliogeophysical purposes. The history of the appearance and features of this type of platform are described, and examples of their implementation are given. A domestic satellite group of small satellites developed in the programs “UniverSat” and “Space-π” are also considered. Small satellites with magnetometric measuring equipment on board are described. Based on the results of the analysis, the main relevant directions for the development of onboard heliogeophysical and, in particular, magnetometric equipment have been identified. Problems have also been identified in the implementation system of the received data. As examples of modern developments in the field of satellite heliogeophysical observations, the activities of the Institute of Applied Geophysics as a thematic customer, expert, and manufacturer of equipment are described. The possibilities of analyzing data from devices that are already in use are described, and prospects for further development are stated.
