Satellite / state-record divergence

Title & Compliancecomplianceverifieddetector verifiedColorado DWR / CDSS public records (public domain). Seed-mode corpora are synthetic development data, marked in provenance.

Orbit disagrees with the paper. Either the state record shows diversions while satellite ET shows the mapped place of use fallow (possible unrecorded lease, fallowing, or misreporting), or satellite shows active irrigation in years with no state record at all (use the record never captured — a compliance and historical-consumptive-use problem in both directions). Independent evidence no county or state file contains, refreshed annually without anyone reporting anything.

Evidenceclaims, risks, and assumptions behind this signal
Satellite ET independently observes beneficial use; sustained divergence from the diversion record is a data-integrity event worth investigating in either direction.
Risks
  • sub-field leases and split cropping can produce partial signatures
  • cloud-gap years reduce observation quality
Assumptions
  • place-of-use polygons are correctly georeferenced
  • ET signatures distinguish irrigated from dryland cover
