World Monitor
World Monitor is an AI-powered, real-time global intelligence map that fuses news, conflicts, disasters, and infrastructure signals into one live dashboard.
WorldMonitor.app is a real-time global intelligence dashboard that aggregates open-source data (news, conflicts, disasters, infrastructure signals, flights, ships, etc.) into an interactive world map so you can quickly see what’s happening around the globe. apps.apple
What is World Monitor?
- It pulls from 100+ public data streams: international news wires, government feeds, flight ADS‑B signals, ship transponders, satellite fire/outage data, and other OSINT sources. sourceforge
- An AI layer classifies events (military activity, protests, cyber incidents, natural disasters, etc.) and assigns severity or “instability” scores to countries or regions. sundayguardianlive
- Everything is visualized on an interactive 2D map and/or 3D globe so you can zoom into hotspots, filter by category, and inspect individual incident details. linkedin
- It is available as an open-source web/desktop experience and is also packaged as native or PWA-style apps depending on platform. webcatalog
