Summary:In this paper the task of the operative monitoring of radiation conditions in the near-Earth space is considered as a part of a project Universat-SOCRAT of the system of small satellites, which is being developed at Moscow State University. The scientific approach to the realization of this task is determined. The choice of the satellite orbits and spatial orientation and the configuration of energetic charged particle detectors is validated taking into account other tasks performed by the projected satellite system.
