BeiDou Global Navigation Satellite System (BDS-3) was formally commissioned to provide satellite navigation services worldwide in 2020. It not only has the normal positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) functions, but also provides several kinds of featured services. The paper  focuses on the featured services of BDS-3 and their applications in various geoscience fields. First, the featured services of BDS-3 and their performances are introduced. Then different application examples are described and analyzed based on the Geostationary Orbit (GEO) satellite-based featured services and Middle Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite-based featured services. Finally, some possible improvements to BDS in the future are discussed.
