Folia Research
Working research from Folia: free and open Earth observation turned into inspectable, re-runnable recipes. Every report shows its work, the exact data sources, the recipe that produced each figure, and the honest limits of what the data can and cannot say.

Can a budget-constrained explorer use free satellite and DEM data to prioritize ground sampling on a greenstone-belt gold claim?

The honest answer: prioritization, not discovery.

Click any coordinate in the lower 48 and get two records of the same ground: the Indigenous language whose traditional range covered it, from Goddard's Smithsonian map, and every land cession the United States wrote down taking there, dated, with the treaty text one click away. The language ranges carry no date at all. The cessions are dated to the day. That asymmetry is the report.
