Mine Disturbance Monitor
Monitor surface disturbance at mining sites using multi-temporal optical/SAR/DEM data. Detect bare land, pits, dumps, roads, and vegetation removal. Track disturbance objects across years, identify disturbances outside mine boundaries (compliance concern), and generate area statistics with evidence.
Trigger
Use when the user wants to:
- Monitor mine surface disturbance over multiple years
- Detect bare land / pit / dump / road / vegetation removal expansion
- Identify disturbances outside mine permit boundaries
- Track disturbance object status (new / expanding / stable / reclaimed)
- Generate disturbance area statistics by year and type
