Capability 02 · Infrastructure monitoring

Evidence that does not come from the operator.

Boards, insurers and regulators increasingly want independent documentation. Satellite InSAR reads millimetre movement across the whole site, backwards in time, with no new hardware, relevant under frameworks such as GISTM.

The problem

Embedded instrumentation covers the points the owner chose to measure, and is operated by the owner. Movement between the instruments, or somewhere no one expected, is not seen. The evidence that stakeholders trust most is the evidence the operator did not produce.

  • History from day one, from open archives
  • The whole surface, not only instrumented points
  • Open source, verifiable by any third party

How it works

Read

Open satellite archives

LITHOS reads public InSAR archives such as EGMS and LiCSAR, with no new sensors to install and no dependence on the operator.

Process

The whole surface, over time

Millimetre-scale deformation is resolved across the entire site and backwards in time, not only at instrumented points.

Publish

Reproducible by a third party

Method and result are open source under Apache 2.0, so any third party can reprocess and check them.

The data layer runs on Northflow's open data-fusion infrastructure, published and documented at northflow.no.

Line-of-sight displacement

A second layer. Independently reproducible.

A complement to your own instruments, produced from open data, that a board or a regulator can verify without taking your word for it.
