Construction evidence

This is what the campus looks like from orbit over time, not a status we recorded: bare land, grading, and building mass tell their own story. Sentinel-2 true color, 10 m resolution, cloud-free scenes; it shows site-scale change, not fine detail. Click any frame to expand it.
