DATA LINEAGE STANDARD

Mission Provenance

Sensor. Timestamp. Location. Cryptographic Proof.

Complete data lineage for mission-critical telemetry. Know exactly what captured your data, when it was captured, where it was captured, and prove it mathematically.

What is Mission Provenance?

Mission Provenanceis the complete, verifiable record of a data point's origin and journey. It answers the four fundamental questions that compliance officers, auditors, and operators need answered:

  • What device or sensor generated this data?
  • When was it captured (with cryptographic certainty)?
  • Where was it captured (verified location)?
  • How can you prove it hasn't been modified?

The Four Layers of Provenance

Complete data lineage requires capturing and cryptographically sealing four distinct dimensions of every telemetry event.

Sensor Identity

What captured the data

Every telemetry source is cryptographically identified via SolCert. Device attestation ensures you know exactly which sensor generated each data point.

Example: Helium LoRaWAN Node: HNT-HTX-0847

Temporal Anchor

When it was captured

Timestamps are anchored to Solana's blockchain, providing cryptographic proof of when data existed. No backdating. No manipulation.

Example: Block: 247,891,034 | Slot: 1714847291

Spatial Proof

Where it was captured

Location data is verified through Helium's Proof-of-Coverage network and cross-referenced with known infrastructure coordinates.

Example: 29.7604° N, 95.3698° W (Energy Corridor)

Cryptographic Seal

Mathematical certainty

All provenance metadata is hashed together and anchored via GroundSync. The resulting Merkle root is your proof of complete data lineage.

Example: Merkle: 0x7a3f...8c2d
