Reader-built field atlas
Yaodong Season-Pair Atlas
One picturesque day cannot establish how an earth dwelling handles temperature, moisture, light, air and household use across time.
Two photographs that can be compared
Frame 1
The complete dwelling or courtyard in one stated season or time
Frame 2
The same view or a matched functional detail after weather, light or use changes
What the note must add
Identify the yaodong form and whether the site is lived in, reused, curated or uncertain. Images cannot prove indoor temperature, air quality, safety or resident satisfaction without measurements and consented context.
Submissions remain private until East Moment reviews the rights, specificity and usefulness of the record.
A visible baseline, with the gaps left open
These are East Moment editorial records built from authorized or rights-cleared imagery. They are not reader submissions and do not count toward the public record total.
The Atlas in public
No matched yaodong season pair has cleared review.
The Atlas begins when the same place returns under different conditions. Two attractive caves from different counties cannot substitute for time.
