Geopolitical & event intelligence

Geopolitical & Event Intelligence

Track geolocated world events, understand why they matter with an AI analyst, and confirm them from space — one browser-based platform, on open data you can publish. For risk, security, and research teams.

Quick Answer: Geopolitical and event intelligence is the practice of tracking world events as they happen, understanding why they matter, and confirming them with evidence. Off-Nadir Delta delivers it on open data: the Watchfloor surfaces geolocated events distilled from global news media and ranked by severity, Delta Agent explains what they mean and what to look at next, and the Map confirms them with Sentinel-1 SAR and Sentinel-2 optical imagery — no GIS software, free to browse.

From event to evidence

A plain events map tells you where something was reported. A plain imagery viewer assumes you already know where to look. Off-Nadir Delta joins the two — detect the event, understand it, then confirm it from space.

1. Detect · Watchfloor

The Watchfloor surfaces geolocated geopolitical and security events worldwide (Delta Signals, distilled from global news media), ranked by severity — a daily, structured picture of what is happening and where, browsable without an account.

2. Explain · Delta Agent

Ask Delta Agent what an event means. It reasons over the live signals with real GEOINT/OSINT tradecraft and returns a sourced, geolocated brief — the analytic layer between a headline and a decision.

3. Confirm · Map

Confirm the event from space: stack Sentinel-1 SAR (all-weather, day or night) and Sentinel-2 optical, compare dates, and run change detection — ground truth you can publish with attribution.

Who it is for

Risk & security teams

Keep a live picture of geopolitical and security events, then confirm the ones that matter with imagery rather than unverified reports.

Supply-chain & operations

Watch ports, chokepoints, and facilities your operations depend on, and detect disruption — flooding, fire, blockage, vessel congestion — as it appears from space.

Insurance & analysts

Tie loss events and exposure to observable ground truth — post-event flooding, fire scars, and structural change on openly licensed imagery you can cite.

Journalists & researchers

Corroborate breaking events, document change over time, and publish on open data you can legally reuse with attribution.

Open sources, situational awareness

Off-Nadir Delta tracks events from open news media and confirms them on openly licensed satellite imagery, and it cites both. It is built for situational awareness — understanding events and places — not for tracking or targeting individuals. It runs on open Sentinel-class data (~10 m), so pair it with a high-resolution source when you need to identify individual objects.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is geopolitical intelligence?▼

Geopolitical intelligence is the practice of tracking world events and understanding their implications for security, risk, and operations — who is doing what, where, and why it matters. Off-Nadir Delta delivers it on open data: a daily situational-awareness dashboard of geolocated events, an AI analyst that explains them, and satellite imagery to confirm them, all in the browser.

What is event intelligence, and how is an event-intelligence platform different?▼

Event intelligence is a structured, geolocated view of real-world events as they happen, rather than a raw news feed. An event-intelligence platform localizes each event in space and time and ranks it, so you can triage what matters. Off-Nadir Delta adds two layers most event feeds lack: an AI analyst that explains why an event matters, and satellite imagery to confirm it — turning a signal into evidence.

How is this different from a live events map like LiveUAMap?▼

A live events map shows you where events are reported. Off-Nadir Delta adds the two steps that come next: Delta Agent explains what an event means and recommends which sensor and area to image, and the Map lets you confirm it with analyzable Sentinel-1 SAR and Sentinel-2 optical imagery. You move from "an event was reported here" to "here is the imagery that confirms it," in one place.

Can I monitor specific areas or interests continuously?▼

Yes. Beyond the global Watchfloor, you can monitor specific areas of interest with satellite time series and ±2σ anomaly detection, which flags when a place deviates from its own baseline — useful for watching a port, facility, border region, or asset without scanning the whole planet by hand. No GIS software or code is required.

Is the underlying data open and publishable?▼

Yes. Event signals are distilled from global news media, and the imagery is openly licensed Earth observation — Sentinel-1 SAR, Sentinel-2 optical, VIIRS nighttime lights, and NASA FIRMS active fires. Because both layers are open, findings are legally reusable with attribution, which makes them suitable for published risk reporting and investigations.
