OSINT Threat Radar

OSINT Threat Radar is a geospatial intelligence dashboard designed to aggregate and visualize public signals relevant to situational awareness: news and cyber-relevant events, earthquakes, GDACS disaster alerts, live aircraft, CelesTrak satellites, GPS/Starlink layers, AIS-ready vessels, and conflict-related OSINT events.

Project Overview

The platform is built as a practical monitoring and visualization layer for open-source signals. It combines normalized backend collectors with a map-oriented frontend that uses a ClimateViewer-style map list, active layer management, and separate visual styles for mobility, space, Earth intelligence, and military OSINT signals.

Layer Catalog

Organizes live and OSINT layers into categories such as Earth Intelligence, Mobility Intelligence, Space Intelligence, and Military OSINT.

Operational Map

Provides an interactive radar-style dashboard with active maps, clear maps, filtering, popup metadata, and visual layer separation.

Backend Collectors

Uses FastAPI collectors and normalizers for public feeds and API-based sources, exposing results as JSON or GeoJSON-like structures.

DFAAS Integration

The operational instance is published under the DFAAS domain, while this page documents the project within the personal portfolio.

Current Live Layers

AircraftOpenSky viewport-based live aircraft layer.

Military OSINTPublic RSS filtering for conflict-related signals with source links.
3D GlobePlanned future view, separate from the stable 2D radar.

Architecture

  • Frontend: Leaflet-based map dashboard with layer catalog and active map controls.
  • Backend: FastAPI service deployed separately and exposed through Render.
  • Public site: DFAAS hosts the operational radar, while GitHub Pages hosts the portfolio/project description.
  • Data model: normalized public-source events and live layer endpoints for aircraft, vessels, and satellites.
