What you will receive as monitoring results
01
Detection report
A report on the results of analysing the territory for MSW storage sites and presentation materials.
Text materials are delivered on electronic media or by FTP and duplicated in printed form.
What you get
- a report on the results of detecting MSW storage sites in the territory
- presentation materials
- text materials in electronic form and in printed form
Report composition and delivery form are fixed in the contract and the terms of reference.
02
Thematic maps
Mapping of the territory with MSW storage sites.
The maps show identified waste-disposal sites in the study area.
What you get
- thematic maps of MSW storage sites
- mapping of the territory based on detection results
Map composition and scale depend on the terms of reference and available images.
03
GeoTIFF and vector
Georeferenced Tiff (Geo TIFF) and vector layers of detected objects in Mid/Mif format.
All results are delivered on electronic media or via the Internet through an FTP server.
What you get
- georeferenced Tiff (Geo TIFF)
- vector layers of detected objects in Mid/Mif format
The coordinate system and layer composition are agreed in the terms of reference.
04
Geometric parameters
Perimeter, coverage area; with radar data or stereo images — relief and volume.
Perimeter and area require high- and very-high-resolution multispectral images. Relief and volume require radar data or stereo images.
What you get
- planimetric geometric parameters: perimeter, coverage area
- if radar or stereo is available — relief and volume
The parameter set depends on the survey type agreed in the terms of reference.
05
Forensic imagery analysis
Based on the study, forensic imagery analysis of the presence of MSW storage sites and interpretation of geometric characteristics (area, shape, perimeter) can be performed.
The analysis is performed in addition to the monitoring report if it is needed for procedural purposes.
What you get
- the possibility of forensic imagery analysis of the presence of MSW storage sites
- interpretation of geometric characteristics: area, shape, perimeter
The composition of the analysis is agreed separately from the main monitoring report.
How the work goes

Timeline — from 10 working days (overall in the timeline block — from 20 days)
Consultation and image selection — free of charge
What data are needed for a quote
To assess feasibility, cost and timelines, please provide:
- location of the object of interest (coordinates, district/region name, shapefile)
- survey-period requirements: archival data or a new survey
- if there are no high- and very-high-resolution multispectral images — the intended use of the RS materials
- if volume and relief are required — whether radar data or stereo images can be provided
If the listed information cannot be provided, describe the intended use of the RS materials — specialists will analyse the requirements and propose an optimal option.
Describe the object, survey period and task — we will assess the archive and the scope of work.
Why Innoter
Prompt access to archives
Suitable archive imagery can be obtained faster when the required area and date are already available from operators.
No aviation clearances
A new satellite survey does not require the flight clearances typical of aerial surveys.
Large and remote areas
A single satellite pass covers large areas and makes it possible to work in hard-to-reach regions.
Direct agreements with operators
Distribution agreements help select archive imagery and order new surveys from different providers.
Software and server infrastructure
Modern software and computing capacity for quality control and processing of large data volumes.
Experienced specialist team
Years of experience on complex projects and specialists in cartography, photogrammetry and remote sensing.
Survey requirements, regulations and classification
Detection and planimetric parameters require high- and very-high-resolution multispectral images; for relief and volume — radar or stereo.
1
To detect MSW storage sites and obtain geometric parameters (perimeter, coverage area, etc.), high- and very-high-resolution multispectral images must be used.
To obtain geometric parameters in space (relief, volume, etc.), radar data or stereo images must be used.
2
The main legal documents that define the tasks and procedure of MSW storage-site monitoring are:
Federal Law No. 7-FZ of 10.01.2002 (as amended on 30.12.2021) “On Environmental Protection”.
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 477 of 06.06.2013 (as amended on 03.08.2020) “On state monitoring of the state and pollution of the environment” (together with the “Regulation on state monitoring of the state and pollution of the environment”).
3
Archival data are already held by the operator. Up-to-date and timely information reduces financial, time and labour costs. A single acquisition covers extensive, including hard-to-reach, areas. Changes and dynamics of MSW landfills can be tracked almost continuously.
4
The minimum order of archival very-high-resolution satellite images under supplier terms is from 25 km².
The minimum order of new very-high-resolution satellite images under supplier terms is from 100 km².
5
After RS materials are processed, a DEM (DTM) is obtained if required. Then the satellite image is interpreted, training-sample polygons are created for image classification, MSW storage sites are detected and the resulting classification is vectorised.
