About The Overseer
The Overseer turns the firehose of open-source information into a single, calm, real-time picture of what is happening on Earth right now.
Last updated June 12, 2026.
What we do
The Overseer is a real-time global intelligence dashboard. It continuously aggregates open data — conflict and unrest events, military and naval activity, aircraft and vessel movements, markets, energy, infrastructure status, cyber threats, disease outbreaks and natural disasters — and plots it on a live world map alongside breaking news.
The goal is situational awareness: instead of refreshing a dozen sites, you see the whole board at a glance and drill into any signal that matters to you.
Where the data comes from
Every layer is built on public, open-source feeds. We aggregate and visualise these sources but do not own the underlying data, and we attribute each signal to its origin wherever possible.
- Seismic and volcanic activity from the USGS and global monitoring networks
- Aircraft and maritime movement from open tracking networks
- Global event and conflict monitoring from GDELT and UCDP
- Markets and energy pricing from public financial endpoints
- Natural events from NASA EONET and GDACS, and health alerts from the WHO
- Curated newswire and broadcast feeds from major outlets
How it works
The dashboard runs almost entirely in your browser. Data is fetched through lightweight caching proxies, normalised, and rendered live. There is no account to create and nothing to install — open the page and the world updates in front of you.
Independence and limitations
The Overseer is an independent project and is not affiliated with any government, agency or news organisation. It is provided for general awareness and research only. Open-source data can be incomplete, delayed or inaccurate, so nothing here should be treated as verified intelligence or relied upon for safety-critical, operational or financial decisions.
