Input

World News geotags articles to a place, so this is a hard filter on an already-sparse index. Over sparsely-reported rural areas the default finds nothing even when coverage exists further out — widen it before reading a zero as evidence.

Asks Gemini a single yes/no per article, aggregated into a supporting/opposing score.

Sent to Gemini as the system instruction for each article — defines what counts as evidence of conflict or military activity.

Pipeline

  1. 01 Retrieval

    Sentinel-2 via Earth Engine, 30 days before and 21 days after the event — or a local HLS scene.

  2. 02 Segmentation

    Awaiting run

    BurnScarSegmenter U-Net over the six reflectance bands, thresholded at 0.50.

  3. 03 Severity

    Awaiting run

    Classifier over NDVI and NBR statistics inside the predicted mask.

  4. 04 Attribution

    Awaiting run

    News search near the coordinates, then a per-article verdict from Gemini.
