OSINT Platform: One Live Map for Open Source Intelligence

What OSINT analysts actually need

Open source intelligence work is rarely limited to one data type. A single question — why did shipping traffic through a strait drop this week? — pulls in vessel positions, military aircraft movements, weather, regional news and commodity prices at once. The bottleneck is almost never the availability of data. It is the time lost correlating five separate tools that do not share a map, a clock or a coordinate system.

Tengri was built around that correlation problem. Every layer shares the same globe, the same timeline and the same search box. Turning on maritime traffic next to military aviation next to active wildfire perimeters takes three clicks, not three subscriptions.

Data layers available in Tengri

• Aircraft — live civil and military flights from ADS-B based feeds, with callsign, registration, aircraft type, route and altitude.
• Vessels — AIS maritime traffic including cargo, tanker, passenger and naval classes, with destination and navigational status.
• Satellites — orbital positions propagated from CelesTrak TLE sets, covering ISS, Starlink, weather, navigation and observation constellations.
• Earthquakes — USGS seismic feed with magnitude, depth and time filtering.
• Wildfires — NASA FIRMS VIIRS thermal anomaly detections, refreshed continuously.
• Disasters and severe weather — GDACS, FEMA and ReliefWeb events including cyclones, floods and humanitarian emergencies.
• Conflict and world news — aggregated wire and broadcast reporting, geolocated where the source permits.
• Live cameras — public traffic and city webcam streams for visual confirmation.
• Market signals — index, commodity, crypto and volatility indicators for economic context.

How Tengri compares to single-purpose OSINT tools

Flightradar24, MarineTraffic and similar services are excellent at one domain each, and Tengri does not claim to replace a specialist tool for deep single-domain forensics. What it replaces is the tab-switching. If your work is about the relationship between domains — naval movements against shipping volume, military flights against a breaking conflict report, storm tracks against port closures — a combined map answers faster than any single feed.

Tengri also exposes its data through a documented REST API, so the same layers can feed a dashboard, a monitoring script or an internal briefing tool.

Legal and ethical scope

Every feed in Tengri is public or commercially licensed data: ADS-B transponder broadcasts, AIS transmissions, government seismic and fire services, publicly published orbital elements and open news wires. Tengri does not collect personal data about individuals, does not process intercepted communications and does not offer any covert collection capability.

Camera coverage follows local law. In jurisdictions where public camera redistribution is restricted, those feeds are disabled by country rather than shown selectively.
