## Editorial
BlackShore Satellite Imagery Forensics is a professional service for acquiring, preparing, and extracting evidence from satellite imagery for legal, humanitarian, and investigative purposes.[^blackshore-forensics-page] The workflow proceeds from image acquisition through preparation, knowledge extraction, and infographic production to court-ready documentation support.[^blackshore-forensics-page]

Satellite data sources include Maxar Technologies imagery provided through Copernicus (EU/ESA).[^blackshore-forensics-page] Analytical methods applied include optical time-series change detection and thermal anomaly detection.[^blackshore-forensics-page] A documented case involved Mariupol children's hospital in 2022, where imagery was used to record bomb-crater evidence and near-infrared fire signatures for legal proceedings.[^blackshore-forensics-page]

This service operates independently of BlackShore's Cerberus crowd-interpretation platform; sensitive humanitarian and legal casework is handled exclusively by professional analysts, not crowd volunteers.[^blackshore-about]
