Layer categories
Aviation
Commercial, private, military, and tracked aircraft with holding-pattern detection and flight trails.
Maritime
25,000+ AIS vessels, US Navy carrier strike group tracker, and superyacht monitoring.
Satellites
2,000+ orbital assets propagated in real time via SGP4, classified by mission type.
Geopolitics
GDELT conflict events, live Ukraine frontline, SIGINT news feed, and region dossiers.
Satellite imagery
NASA MODIS Terra daily imagery, Esri sub-meter basemap, and Sentinel-2 intel cards.
SDR radio
KiwiSDR public receivers with embedded live tuner, OpenMHz trunked radio, and Broadcastify.
Surveillance
2,000+ CCTV feeds from London, NYC, Austin, and Singapore with automatic feed-type detection.
Environmental
NASA FIRMS fire hotspots, space weather Kp index, IODA internet outages, and USGS earthquakes.
Signal intelligence
GPS jamming zones derived from ADS-B NAC-P degradation analysis, plus the radio intercept panel.
API key requirements
Most layers require no API key. The only key required for full functionality is the aisstream.io key for maritime tracking.| Key | Purpose | Required |
|---|---|---|
AIS_API_KEY | Maritime vessel tracking via aisstream.io WebSocket | Yes |
OPENSKY_CLIENT_ID / OPENSKY_CLIENT_SECRET | Higher rate limits for flight data | Optional |
LTA_ACCOUNT_KEY | Singapore LTA CCTV cameras | Optional |
Layers that use no API key — satellites, earthquakes, NASA FIRMS, KiwiSDR, GDELT, DeepState Map, and most others — are fully functional without any configuration.
