An Earth observation that survives an agent handoff.
EMEM gives an observation a lookup identity and a content-addressed record. An agent passes the reference; the next agent resolves the same record and checks it before continuing. Earth data stays upstream while its reference enters the reasoning.

The full Observe → Locate → Record → Hand off → Resolve → Check → Continue workflow sits above the handoff experiment. The reviewed build restores the eight-value diagnostic, decoded evidence object, single-line change model with the implemented anchor score, and SAT-042 execution harness. Section 7 consolidates the checked-reference scope. The compact community band is section 12. Review and validation.

The accepted programme title is EMEM: A Content-Addressed, Verifiable Earth-Memory Protocol for AI Agents over Foundation-Model Embeddings. The printed title keeps its first part, EMEM: A Content-Addressed, Verifiable Earth-Memory Protocol (authors' choice, 4 Oct 2026).
The poster follows one system: observe, locate, record, hand off, resolve, check and continue. The controlled handoff experiment, source-pixel example and temporal memory demonstrate the checks. The complete token family and execution harness show the wider scope; the ecosystem panel distinguishes tested paths from protocol, registry and example surfaces. The Berlin multi-product stack remains in the repository and companion methods.
- The lookup identity is cell, product and observation time.
- The content address is BLAKE3 of the canonical observation record.
emem:fact:<cell64>:<fact_cid>carries the cell and exact record address. Product and time are fields inside the record.- A batch attestation covers record addresses. The source pointers in the illustrated record name the imagery; a source re-read tests the measurement.
- Source quality, entity meaning and downstream decisions remain separate responsibilities.

python poster/build_site.pyThe poster build checks page size, layout, typography, glyphs, claim coverage, evidence rows, colours, images, QR decoding and copy length. The report records the results. Measurements are in research/repro/; claims are mapped in research/v13/12_claims_map*.json.
The detailed verification ladder, token grammars and SAT-042 reference harness remain linked from the methods. Earlier posters and signed tracks identify their own archived files; they do not attest this revised PDF.
The companion pages deploy from committed /docs through the Pages workflow on pushes to main. Poster artifacts are committed under poster/.
