Environmental compliance & site-impact monitoring

Regulators, lenders and downstream buyers all need to verify that a mine stays inside its footprint and isn't driving deforestation, sediment pollution or acid drainage beyond its boundary. Ground audits are infrequent and self-reported figures are hard to independently check. ETD differences frequent 2–4 m imagery against a licence boundary and its own recent baseline to show expansion, new clearing, tailings growth and water discolouration as they happen — an objective, timestamped record for compliance, ESG/supply-chain due diligence and development-bank monitoring, over any site worldwide.
