4. Global Evidence Mesh

Status: FOUNDATION / IN DEVELOPMENT

The Global Evidence Mesh is Geomacro's provenance-aware evidence architecture. The objective is not to mirror the internet or archive complete third-party articles. It is to retain the structured evidence needed to reproduce, challenge and defend a risk assessment.

    E --> F[Risk methodology]

Durable evidence primitives

Depending on the source and product policy, Geomacro can retain:

canonical events or observations
country and entity attribution
event/story-family identifiers
observation and publication timestamps
source identity and references
confidence and freshness
classification provenance
source-access/commercial-eligibility state
methodology and calculation references
content, input or provenance hashes where appropriate

What Geomacro is not building

Geomacro does not need to persist full third-party article bodies, publisher images or mirrored pages to produce structured intelligence. Commercial source rights and redistribution rights are separate from ingestion capability.
