Acceptance Criteria

Milestone M1 — Working foundation

M1 is accepted when:

• backend starts successfully;
• frontend starts successfully;
• project can be created;
• area can be added as polygon;
• dataset can be uploaded or fixture-imported;
• metadata is persisted;
• basic map/workbench UI exists;
• tests cover project/area basics.

Milestone M2 — Raster/vector foundation

M2 is accepted when:

• vector data can be imported;
• raster metadata can be read;
• CRS/bounds/resolution are visible;
• area/length calculations use metric CRS;
• vector clipping works;
• raster clipping either works or fails with a clear limitation message;
• outputs are persisted as artifacts.

Milestone M3 — Detection foundation

M3 is accepted when:

• a detection run can be started;
• detections are persisted with class, confidence and geometry;
• detections can be visualized/listed;
• detections can be exported as GeoJSON;
• provider interface supports future YOLO implementation.

Milestone M4 — QA/QC foundation

M4 is accepted when:

• predictions can be compared with a reference layer;
• IoU matching works;
• precision, recall and F1 are calculated;
• false positives and false negatives are available as separate findings/layers;
• unit tests cover edge cases.

Milestone M5 — End-to-end demo

M5 is accepted when Demo 1 runs from UI:

1. Open project.
2. Select area.
3. Load raster/reference fixtures.
4. Run detection.
5. Run QA/QC against reference.
6. View map/results.
7. Export GeoJSON and summary.

Quality gates

Before any handoff:

• no syntax errors;
• no obvious broken imports;
• backend test suite run;
• frontend build/typecheck run if available;
• docs updated;
• limitations documented.

Rejection criteria

Reject a build if:

• core pages are placeholder-only;
• endpoints return hardcoded success without persisted data;
• geospatial outputs lack CRS metadata;
• code ignores service boundaries;
• major errors are hidden from UI;
• a feature claims GRB/YOLO/SAM support without provider separation or explicit development-provider labeling.
