Off-Nadir Delta
The Delta Watchfloor

Situational Awareness Dashboard

Your daily global risk picture — where scattered risk signals meet satellite verification. See what is happening, what changed, and what it means, all on one screen.

Quick answer — what Off-Nadir Delta is

A situational awareness dashboard brings scattered, fast-moving information into one screen so you can see the current picture at a glance. The Delta Watchfloor does this for global events: it maps geolocated geopolitical and security signals, shows how many outlets report each one and which, whether a satellite could observe it and what to collect, lets you narrow the window from the last 15 minutes to a chosen date range, and lets you add events or areas to a Watchlist — free to browse, no GIS required.

Live Global Feed

The latest geolocated events worldwide, newest reports first, sized by severity and continuously refreshed.

How Widely Reported

Every event shows how many outlets carry it, lists them, and says whether it has reached the stage where a satellite could observe it.

Timeline & History

Scrub back through days of activity to see how a situation built, not just where it stands.

Your Areas

Watch saved areas of interest with statistical anomaly detection and active-fire overlays.

AI Deep-Dive

Ask Delta Agent a plain-language question and get a sourced, geolocated remote-sensing brief.

Events × Imagery

Move from a reported event to satellite imagery of the affected area in one tip-and-cue workflow.

What Is a Situational Awareness Dashboard?

A situational awareness dashboard is a single, continuously updated view that compresses scattered, fast-moving information into one common operating picture. Instead of checking many sources, you see the current state of a domain at a glance, what has changed, and where to direct attention next.

The Delta Watchfloor applies this to global events. It maps geolocated geopolitical and security signals (Delta Signals, drawn from global news media and official hazard feeds), sizes them by severity, and shows for each the facts with the article each one came from and the outlets reporting it. The stage each event has reached — and the reason it stopped there — turns a static snapshot into an understanding of how much of it is actually established, and of what evidence is still missing.

What sets it apart is the link from event to evidence. Through an event-to-imagery (tip-and-cue) workflow, you can move from a reported incident to satellite monitoring of the affected area, and ask the AI Delta Agent for a sourced brief — all in the browser, with no GIS software or code.

How It Works

1

Open the Watchfloor

Start with the global picture — geolocated conflict, security, disaster and infrastructure events worldwide, newest first with a severity score on each. Without an account you see the previous day’s top events and every event on the map; a free account opens every event and its details, and paid plans extend how much of the timeline you can reach.

2

See Whether It Is Confirmed

Each signal states whether it is independently reported or only claimed, and whether a satellite could settle it — the two questions a news map never answers.

3

Pick the Time Window

Narrow to the last 24 hours, or on a paid plan to the last 15 minutes or hour, or pick a date range to see how a situation built up — not just where it stands right now. How far back a date range reaches depends on your plan.

4

Deep-Dive Any Area

Add your own areas of interest, overlay active fires and satellite layers, and run an AI remote-sensing assessment on what matters.

Track the situation by country

Jump to recent event signals and satellite monitoring for a specific country.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a situational awareness dashboard?▼
A situational awareness dashboard is a single screen that brings together what is happening across a domain so you can understand the current picture at a glance and decide where to focus. For global events, it aggregates geolocated incidents, shows what is new, lets you look back over time, and links each signal to supporting context such as satellite imagery. The goal is to compress scattered, fast-moving information into one common operating picture.
How is the Delta Watchfloor different from a news feed or alert tool?▼
A news feed gives you headlines; an alert tool pings you about keywords. The Delta Watchfloor is map-first and analysis-first: every event is geolocated, sized by severity on the map, and carries its facts with the article each one came from, how many outlets report it and which ones, and whether a satellite could observe it. You can ask Delta Agent a plain-language question and get a sourced, geolocated brief — turning "what happened" into "what does it mean and where should I look next."
Where does the event data come from?▼
Geolocated event signals (Delta Signals) are drawn from global news media and official hazard feeds — open monitoring of world events — and are continuously refreshed and AI-enriched. Active fire data comes from NASA FIRMS. Satellite layers use Sentinel-1 SAR, Sentinel-2 optical, and VIIRS nighttime lights. All sources are open data used with attribution.
Is it free to use?▼
Yes — browsing the Watchfloor is free. Without an account it shows the previous day’s top signals and every signal of that day on the map; a free account opens every signal up to the end of the previous day and the free part of its detail. Paid plans add the real-time view of today, a date range to look back through, and what happened in each event (the reported facts and the places named); Pro adds the evidence behind it (every source, the collection recommendation and the related events). AI remote-sensing deep-dives need an account and are paid for with tokens. See the pricing page for current details.
Who is a global event situational awareness dashboard for?▼
It is built for risk, supply-chain, and insurance analysts tracking exposure; OSINT and security researchers monitoring developing situations; disaster responders watching active hazards; and journalists and analysts who need to see where events are unfolding and corroborate them with satellite evidence. Anyone who needs to know "what is happening on Earth right now, and where" is a candidate.
Can I connect events to satellite imagery?▼
Yes — that is the core idea. The Watchfloor fuses real-world event signals with on-demand satellite monitoring, so you can move from a reported event to imagery and a time series of the affected area in the same workflow. This event-to-imagery (tip-and-cue) loop is what separates an intelligence dashboard from a plain events list.
