What it can show

Current weather and air quality, official alerts where supported, active natural events, earthquakes, nearby public webcams and community street photos, radio links, country context, housing data where available, plus selected local road and live-transport layers.

Ask place questions in chat, or use WorldEye Voice for a spoken first-run guided briefing. Replay the briefing controls whenever you want a fresh orientation. Results describe the sources shown in each card; missing or unavailable coverage is not an all-clear.

Live sources & limits

• Weather / air quality: public forecast and air-quality providers, subject to their local coverage and update schedules.
• Official alerts: US National Weather Service point alerts only; outside the US there is no NWS alert feed.
• Natural events / earthquakes: NASA EONET active events and USGS M2.5+ events from the last 30 days, filtered around the selected place.
• Aircraft: crowdsourced ADS-B positions within 50–150 NM, refreshed every 5 minutes. Estimated motion freezes after 90 seconds without a source report.
• ISS / vessels: ISS position refreshes every 5 seconds. Live AIS is Finland Digitraffic data within Finnish waters only, refreshed every 30 seconds.
• Roads: built-in browser feeds cover German Autobahnen, London, New York City speeds, and Austin reports. Monroe County, NY's official 911 RSS is CORS-blocked in the browser, so the Traffic card shows unavailable and links to official 511NY, Google, and Waze rather than claiming roads are clear. Alert Watch monitors qualifying Monroe road dispatch incidents server-side.
• Recent reported crime: the City of Rochester RPD Part I Crime - Last 30 Days layer is visible in Rochester and monitored server-side; it is a rolling record of recent reports, not live crime or active emergencies, and does not cover Brighton or all Monroe County. Alert Watch can also classify qualifying Monroe 911 public-safety dispatch activity server-side. Dispatch activity is unverified and not confirmed crime. Source: RPD ArcGIS layer.
• Cameras: only indexed public cameras within the displayed local radius. Feeds may be delayed, offline, or unavailable.

Space layer

The optional Space layer shows a selected, capped set of satellites—not every object in orbit—using CelesTrak NORAD GP/TLE data when available. Offline/network fallbacks are labeled as example TLEs with their epoch. Its Solar System view is an educational, visually compressed current approximation informed by NASA/JPL references; NASA/JPL Horizons is the authoritative ephemeris source. Body imagery and galleries link to official NASA, JPL, LRO, SDO, Hubble, and JWST resources.

Privacy & location

Locate and the regular FOLLOW panel use your device location while this page is open to move the map and check nearby in-app alerts. That ordinary location use is not stored on WorldEye servers and is not sent to email or webhook destinations.

If you explicitly link an Alert Watch to FOLLOW, WorldEye sends its coordinates and observation time to the alert service while FOLLOW is open so that specific watch can move. A Follow watch becomes stale and is suspended after 30 minutes without a fresh location update. Phones can suspend web apps in the background; WorldEye does not promise background tracking.

Alert Watches

Alert Watches are opt-in and saved for destinations you add. Fixed watches stay at the selected area. Follow-linked watches update only after a fresh device fix and only when the movement or time threshold is met. Server monitoring, verified destinations, quiet hours, severity choices, and daily limits govern delivery.

Verified server-side categories currently deployed: NWS weather alerts, USGS earthquakes, NASA EONET natural events, Monroe 911 dispatch activity, Rochester RPD rolling reports, Caltrans/CHP traffic, LAPD NIBRS reported offenses, and LAFD alerts. Traffic, crime, and dispatch categories remain source- and coverage-limited: Monroe 911 dispatch is unverified activity, not confirmed crime; Rochester RPD does not cover Brighton; and reported data is not live emergencies. Dallas, San Diego, Chicago, Houston, Seattle, and Philadelphia are not monitor coverage yet. The browser Traffic card cannot ingest Monroe RSS because the official source blocks CORS. No signal replaces emergency services or official instructions.

Los Angeles official sources

Traffic: Caltrans QuickMap publishes live CHP incidents, updated about every minute. Its official KML is CORS-blocked in the browser, so the Los Angeles Traffic card links to QuickMap instead of displaying an empty result; Alert Watch ingests qualifying incidents server-side.

Reported crime / public safety: the City of Los Angeles LAPD NIBRS dataset is delayed open data. WorldEye shows reported offenses near Los Angeles with locations rounded to the hundred block, never precise addresses, live crime, or emergencies. Alert Watch uses its selected-city sources with radius filtering, first-run baselines and deduplication. The LAFD real-time incident RSS is an official selected-city emergency source. Source unavailability is not an all-clear.

Miami official sources

Fire Rescue active calls: Miami-Dade Fire Rescue active calls auto-refresh every 60 seconds. They are public dispatch/response activity with received time, incident type, address text, units, and service area—not confirmed crime and not a complete emergency feed. The official HTML is link-only in WorldEye; no calls or dots are claimed.

Traffic: the Florida Highway Patrol live crash and road-condition report is statewide and refreshes about every 5 minutes; incidents within city limits may be missing because FHP often does not work them. FL511 is the official live map. WorldEye has no verified key-free browser incident feed or count for Miami, so absence is not roads clear.

Police incidents: Miami-Dade Police incident-level open data was not found. WorldEye does not use the misleading non-Miami Police_Incidents sample layer and does not show a fake zero. See Miami-Dade Police and Miami-Dade Open Data.

Dallas official sources

Police active calls: City of Dallas Open Data lists Dallas Police Active Calls only when an assigned element has arrived and is currently working. Privacy-protected calls are excluded and automated refresh may be delayed. WorldEye deduplicates by incident number and labels these unverified dispatch activity, never confirmed crime.

Reported incidents: Dallas Police filtered RMS public data is delayed preliminary research data, filtered for privacy/exclusions, not guaranteed complete or timely, and not for comparisons over time. WorldEye only plots its filtered geocoded reported-incident coordinates, not active-call addresses.

Fire / traffic: Dallas Fire-Rescue active incidents are active fire/rescue dispatch response, not confirmed outcomes. TxDOT Dallas/Fort Worth incidents and Dallas live traffic cameras remain link-only; WorldEye claims no browser incident count and absence is not roads clear.

San Diego official sources

Reported offenses: SDPD NIBRS Crime Offenses Geo is extracted from SDPD Records Management for informational use. WorldEye uses approved-date recency and official geometry, with capped results labeled honestly. It is delayed approved/reported RMS offense data—not live crime or active emergencies.

Fire / rescue: SDFR FireMap Incidents supplies active-flag fire/rescue dispatch response rows in San Diego. Because the source flag can retain stale rows, WorldEye filters to source response times within 6 hours. They are not confirmed outcomes or crime; medical responses may be included, and WorldEye does not display street details.

Traffic / calls history: SANDAG 511 and current road reports are link-only with no browser count. SDPD daily calls-for-service is dispatch history, not real-time and not the live Crime card source.

Chicago official sources

Reported incidents: City of Chicago CPD CLEAR Crimes - Last 30 Days is delayed preliminary reported-incident data. It excludes the most recent 7 days, updates daily Tuesday–Sunday, uses block-level addresses for privacy, and classifications can change. WorldEye does not display addresses; the data are not guaranteed complete or timely and are not live crime.

Traffic / alerts: Chicago Traffic Tracker, CDOT traffic information, and OEMC current alerts/public information are link-only in WorldEye. It claims no browser incident or OEMC alert count; unavailable is not roads clear or an all-clear.

Houston official sources

Reported offenses: Houston Police NIBRS Recent Crime Reports are official reported-offense data. WorldEye merges the four NIBRS layers using official geometry, bounded recency and radius. They are not live crime or active emergencies; HPD says the data are for specific purposes, need independent verification, and are not warranted accurate or complete.

Active incidents / traffic: The official HFD/HPD active-incidents page is Central Command dispatch activity for Fire, Police, and EMS, updated every 5 minutes. It is link-only: WorldEye shows neither count nor addresses/cross streets, and does not treat it as confirmed crimes or outcomes. Houston TranStar is also link-only with no browser incident count; unavailable is not roads clear.

Philadelphia official sources

Police incident reports: OpenDataPhilly Crime Incidents publishes Philadelphia police incident/report data keyed to dispatch time. WorldEye queries the public Carto API with a 30-day window and 1,000-row cap, uses only the source point coordinates, and does not request or display location blocks. These are not live crime, proof of an offense, or active emergencies.

Traffic / official alerts: 511PA provides official real-time traveler information, but programmatic feeds require requested access, so WorldEye is link-only and claims no incident count. The Philadelphia Street Closure API concerns permitted closures, not necessarily live incidents. ReadyPhiladelphia and the Philadelphia Fire Department are link-only; WorldEye claims no local active-alert count. Unavailable coverage is not an all-clear.

Seattle official sources

Reported offenses: SPD Crime Data 2008-Present releases finalized UCR-approved reports, updated every 24 hours. Draft/awaiting approval reports arrive on later days and classifications can change. WorldEye excludes NOT_A_CRIME, does not show addresses, and labels it delayed reported offense data—not live crime or emergencies.

Fire / traffic: Seattle Real-Time Fire 911 Calls are SFD dispatch activity updated every five minutes, not confirmed outcomes or crime; WorldEye does not display addresses. SDOT travelers and WSDOT real-time map are link-only with no browser count.

For builders

WorldEye is a browser-first product. The app uses public-source APIs through direct requests and site-local proxy routes where required, and presents source, coverage, freshness, and unavailable states alongside results. Its alert features use site-managed records and browser requests stay scoped to the WorldEye site.

Install

WorldEye can be installed from a supported browser: use the browser install control on desktop or Android, or Safari’s Share menu then Add to Home Screen on iPhone and iPad. The offline shell can open without a connection, but the globe, chat, location tools, and live data need network access.
