NISAR Update — Integrating L-band for the Bismarck Archipelago

We’re aligning our workflows to ingest NISAR L-band and refine buffer-zone alerts across priority AOIs. During this short upgrade window, the site is temporarily unavailable.

Focus AOIs (“Under the Radar”)

• East New Britain
• New Ireland
• New Hanover (Lavongai)

What’s changing

• L-band basemaps + weekly disturbance checks around rivers, villages, and FMAs
• Evidence packs (maps, timelines, filings) for mediation and legal processes
• Improved canopy penetration and cut-line detection in dense forest
