A system, not a gesture
S1 · Monitor
Fixed phone stations capture the same shoreline view again and again, turning visitor photos into a consistent scientific record.
S2 · Understand
Each accepted image is checked for quality and paired with lake level and weather context, so change over time is measured, not guessed.
S3 · Act
Cleanups are planned where the evidence points, and their results are documented with the same honesty as the monitoring itself.
