# 🌍 Track Every War on Earth From One Browser Tab — 25 Layers, Zero Cost _Military flights. Dark ships. Nuclear facilities. 25 data layers. One browser tab. $0._ ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/koala73/worldmonitor/main/new-world-monitor.png) **Right now, 9+ active wars are running simultaneously.** Iran protests. Israel-Gaza. Russia-Ukraine. Sudan. Myanmar. India-Pakistan tensions. Yemen. Congo. Syria. Think of this as a war room that governments pay millions for — except it’s open-source, runs in your browser, and an AI reads 100+ news feeds so you don’t have to. _You see what’s happening, where it’s happening, and what infrastructure is at risk — before the headlines catch up._ * * * > **🌍 Why This Matters Right Now — Active Conflicts in 2026** > > The world hasn’t been this violent since World War II. Around 130 armed conflicts are active globally — more than double the number from 15 years ago. Here’s what World Monitor tracks _right now_: > > | Conflict | Status (March 2026) | What World Monitor Shows You | > | --- | --- | --- | > | **Iran** | Massive unrest + US/Israel tensions after June 2025 twelve-day war | Flight radar, internet outages, prediction markets, protest heatmaps | > | **Israel-Gaza** | Ceasefire collapsed March 2025, fighting resumed | Satellite fire detection, naval movements, news velocity spikes | > | **Russia-Ukraine** | Grinding attrition, infrastructure strikes both sides | Military flights, AIS gaps (dark ships), country instability index | > | **Sudan** | Civil war, mass atrocities in Darfur | Protest data, satellite fires, humanitarian corridor disruptions | > | **Myanmar** | Multi-front civil war, rebel advances | Conflict zone markers, military base tracking, news correlation | > | **Yemen** | Houthi strikes on Red Sea shipping | Naval vessel monitoring, AIS disruptions in Strait of Hormuz | > | **DR Congo** | M23/Rwanda proxy war in eastern provinces | ACLED protest data, mineral deposit maps, UN presence tracking | > | **India-Pakistan** | Worst clashes in decades (May 2025) | Military surge detection, nuclear facility monitoring, flight tracking | > | **Sahel** | Jihadist insurgencies across Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger | GDELT event data, conflict zone overlays, instability scoring | > > ⚡ **The tool doesn’t just show you where wars are.** It shows you what’s _about to escalate_ — by detecting when multiple signals converge in the same area (military flights + protests + internet outages = something’s brewing). > **🧠 How It Actually Works — Explained Simply** > > Think of World Monitor as a radar system for the entire planet. It watches hundreds of signals simultaneously and tells you when something unusual happens. > > | Layer | What It Does | Real-World Example | > | --- | --- | --- | > | **AI News Brain** | Reads 100+ RSS feeds, classifies threats by severity, writes daily intelligence briefs | “Breaking: unusual military activity in Eastern Mediterranean” — you see it before CNN runs it | > | **Country Instability Score** | Rates 20 countries 0-100 based on protests, military activity, news velocity, baseline risk | Iran might show 78/100 during active unrest — Ukraine sits at 55+ permanently | > | **Convergence Detection** | When 3+ different signal types spike in the same area — it flags that zone automatically | Military flights + naval movements + satellite fires all in the same 1° grid = convergence alert | > | **Prediction Markets** | Pulls Polymarket odds for geopolitical events as early-warning indicators | If “Iran strike” odds jump from 15% to 45% before any news breaks — that’s a leading signal | > | **Dark Ship Detection** | When vessels turn off their tracking transponders — that itself is intelligence | Military ships going dark near the Strait of Hormuz = something’s happening | > > **The two-stage threat brain:** > > Every headline passes through two filters. First, a keyword engine instantly classifies it (takes milliseconds). Then, an AI model (Llama 3.1) re-analyzes it in the background for higher accuracy. You see results immediately — the AI refines them within seconds. You never wait. > **🗺️ The 25 Data Layers — What You Can See** > > | Category | Layers | Why It Matters | > | --- | --- | --- | > | **Geopolitical** | Active conflicts, intelligence hotspots, social unrest, sanctions, weather alerts | Where fighting is happening _right now_ | > | **Military** | 220+ bases (9 operators), live aircraft (ADS-B), naval vessels (AIS), nuclear facilities, spaceports | Where militaries are moving and staging | > | **Infrastructure** | Undersea cables, oil/gas pipelines, AI datacenters (111 clusters), internet outages, mineral deposits, satellite fires | What’s at risk if fighting spreads — a cable cut can kill your internet | > | **Intelligence** | APT cyber threat actors, gamma irradiators, NASA FIRMS thermal hotspots | The hidden signals most people don’t know to look for | > > Toggle any layer on/off. Zoom in and detail layers appear. Zoom out and it intelligently clusters markers so the map stays clean. > > **8 regional presets:** Global, Americas, Europe, MENA, Asia, Africa, Oceania, Latin America — one click to focus. > > **Time filtering:** 1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days — see what happened when. > **⚡ Setup — 60 Seconds, Two Options** > > **Option A — Just use it (zero setup):** > > Go to **[worldmonitor.app](https://worldmonitor.app)** → done. Everything works in your browser. No account. No download. No payment. > > That’s it. You’re now running an intelligence dashboard. > > **Option B — Self-host it (for the technical):** > > ```auto > git clone https://github.com/koala73/worldmonitor.git > cd worldmonitor > npm install > npm run dev > > ``` > > Opens at `localhost:5173`. Add API keys in `.env.local` for extra features: > > | Key | What It Unlocks | Free? | > | --- | --- | --- | > | `GROQ_API_KEY` | AI summaries + threat classification | ✅ Free tier | > | `UPSTASH_REDIS_*` | Cross-user caching (faster for multiple users) | ✅ Free tier | > | `OPENSKY_*` | Live military flight data | ✅ Free account | > | `NASA_FIRMS_API_KEY` | Satellite fire detection | ✅ Free | > | `VESSELFINDER_API_KEY` | Ship tracking | Paid (optional) | > > ⚡ **The webapp works without any API keys.** Keys just unlock extra layers. > **🔥 What Makes This Different From Other OSINT Tools** > > | Tool | Cost | What It Does | World Monitor Advantage | > | --- | --- | --- | --- | > | **Flashpoint / Dataminr** | $100K+/year | Enterprise intelligence platforms | World Monitor does 80% of this for $0 | > | **LiveUAMap** | Free | Plots events on a map per conflict zone | World Monitor adds AI analysis, military tracking, infrastructure layers, convergence detection | > | **Janes / Palantir** | Enterprise pricing | Military/defense intelligence | World Monitor is open-source — you can see exactly how it works and self-host it | > | **Google News** | Free | Aggregates headlines | World Monitor _classifies_ threats, _geolocates_ events, _correlates_ signals — news is just one input of many | > > **The architecture is wild:** 30+ Vercel Edge Functions as API layer. Browser-side ML (TensorFlow.js) for entity recognition. Redis for caching. Circuit breakers on every data feed so one broken source doesn’t take down the dashboard. It even tracks which data sources are _down_ and tells you what you _can’t_ see — preventing false confidence. > **🚫 What It Won't Do — Honest Limitations** > > | Limitation | Reality | > | --- | --- | > | **Not real-time military comms** | It tracks publicly available signals (ADS-B, AIS, news). Classified intel stays classified. | > | **AI can misclassify** | The keyword engine handles most cases, but edge cases exist. LLM refinement helps but isn’t perfect. | > | **State media is included** | RT, Xinhua, IRNA show up — but they’re visually tagged with propaganda risk ratings so you know the bias. | > | **Data gaps are real** | Some regions have minimal coverage. The tool explicitly tells you when data sources are down or stale — that honesty is rare. | * * * **⚡ Quick Hits** | Want | Do | | --- | --- | | 🌍 Track all active wars in one view | → [worldmonitor.app](https://worldmonitor.app) — toggle conflict zones layer | | ✈ Watch military flights live | → Enable ADS-B layer, zoom into conflict region | | 🚢 Find dark ships | → Enable AIS layer, look for gap indicators near chokepoints | | 🔥 See satellite fire detection | → Enable NASA FIRMS layer — shows active thermal hotspots | | 📊 Check country instability | → Click any monitored country for live 0-100 score | | 🤖 Get AI war brief | → Click “World Brief” for LLM-synthesized daily summary | * * * 🔗 **Live Dashboard:** [worldmonitor.app](https://worldmonitor.app) 🔗 **Tech Variant:** [tech.worldmonitor.app](https://tech.worldmonitor.app) 🔗 **GitHub:** [github.com/koala73/worldmonitor](https://github.com/koala73/worldmonitor) 📄 **License:** MIT (fully open-source) * * * _130 active conflicts. 25 data layers.
