The Challenge
Understanding permafrost dynamics in operational and exploration areas requires large-scale time-series analysis beyond the capacity of conventional desktop GIS tools.
Approach & Methods
Designed a cloud-based multicluster computing workflow combining satellite-derived surface temperature and vegetation indices to detect permafrost change, integrated with mineral occurrence data.

Outcomes & Impact
Produced regional permafrost change maps with temporal analysis, providing environmental intelligence for operational planning and exploration.
Reflection
“Climate-aware geospatial intelligence is no longer a research niche — it is operational necessity for any resource organisation working in northern or high-altitude environments.”
