# Cross-Cutting Acceptance Test: Degraded Satellite Data ## Summary Validate system robustness with outdated or lower-quality satellite imagery per operational constraints. ## Test Description Test system performance when satellite data is: - Outdated (2+ years old) - Lower resolution (Zoom 17-18 instead of 19) - Partially missing (some areas without coverage) - From different season (winter satellite, summer flight) ## Test Steps 1. Use deliberately outdated satellite tiles 2. Process AD000001-030 3. Measure accuracy degradation 4. Verify L2 (DINOv2) still matches despite appearance changes ## Success Criteria - System continues to operate (no crash) - L2 retrieval still works (top-5 recall > 70%) - Accuracy degrades gracefully (may not meet AC-2, but should meet relaxed threshold) - Clear error/warning messages about data quality ## Pass/Fail **Passes**: System operational with degraded data, graceful degradation **Fails**: Complete failure, crashes, or no indication of data quality issues
