Abstract

The article examines approaches to ensuring situational awareness under current threats to national security through the integration of heterogeneous data sources. The aim of the study is to harmonize methods for using Earth remote sensing data, ground-based geophysical monitoring, and open-source information to detect and verify natural and technogenic events.
The research methodology is based on a comprehensive analysis of multisensor information, including satellite imagery of various spatial resolutions, seismic and infrasound data, as well as mass media reports. Methods of spatio-temporal correlation, signal processing, and comparative analysis were applied.
The results confirm the effectiveness of the integrated approach for determining the parameters of technogenic events, including the time, location, and energy characteristics of explosions. Case studies of real events demonstrate the possibility of reliable verification even under conditions of limited availability of individual data sources.
The theoretical significance lies in the development of methodologies for spectral analysis of geophysical processes. The practical significance is associated with the application of the results to support decision-making in the field of security and defense.
The scientific novelty is defined by the integration of data sources of different physical nature into a unified event verification system.
The limitations of the study are related to the availability of very high-resolution satellite data and the technical characteristics of sensors. Future research prospects include the development of automated data processing algorithms and the expansion of monitoring networks.
