How OrbGSS publishes
| Principle | What it means | See it |
|---|---|---|
| Evidence-backed screening | Priorities come from mapped layers, not an unexplained model output. | The three layers |
| Traceable provenance | Every published visual maps back to a source and a recorded export. | Data sources |
| Explicit data gaps | A missing layer is published as missing, never invented. | Structure and geology |
| AOI-first analysis | One declared area, projection and grid before any interpretation. | The pilot at a glance |
| Remote narrowing | Large areas are ordered from orbit before field time is committed. | Where to look first |
| Decision support | Helps decide where to investigate; field investigation remains necessary. |
No accuracy, performance, deployment, customer or scale figures are published for this baseline.
