Land governance & encroachment monitoring
Recurring change detection scored against cadastral and zoning baselines — surfacing encroachment on public land, unauthorised construction, and illegal sand or stone mining before they become entrenched.
- Cadastral-aware change flags
- Radar + optical evidence
- District-scale coverage
Benefits
What land governance & encroachment monitoring unlocks
Short-term optimization
- Flag new encroachment on government land each monitoring cycle
- Detect unauthorised riverbed mining activity remotely
- Direct enforcement teams with dated, georeferenced evidence
Long-term impact
- A continuous change ledger over public land parcels
- Deterrence through systematic, documented monitoring
- Inputs for land-records modernisation programmes
Approach & methodology
How the analytics work
We are transparent about data sources, models, and limits — so you can trust what you act on.
- Data sources
- High-resolution optical imagery on recurring schedules; radar backscatter for extraction activity; official cadastral and zoning layers supplied by the client.
- Approach
- Built-up and disturbance change detection scored against parcel boundaries; activity classification for mining signatures.
- Update cadence
- Monthly standard; weekly for enforcement hotspots.
- Limitations
- Detection floor tied to imagery resolution; legal action requires ground verification of flagged parcels.
