The problem
Unauthorised construction spreads faster than inspectors can survey, and evidence is hard to assemble.
What to build
Build a pipeline that compares imagery over time to flag new structures in protected or restricted zones.
Success looks like
Detection of new buildings above an agreed precision on a labelled area, with before-and-after chips for each alert.
Suggested technologies
- Satellite imagery
- Change detection
- Segmentation
- GIS
- Alert workflows
