Third Eye is an open source global intelligence dashboard that pulls together many kinds of publicly available real-time data onto a single interactive map. It brings live flight tracking, ship traffic, public CCTV camera feeds, earthquake alerts, wildfire hotspots, news broadcasts, and conflict zone information into one GPU-accelerated view, so a user can see many streams of open-source intelligence, often called OSINT, in one place instead of checking a dozen separate websites. The map itself is rendered using WebGL rather than typical web page elements, which lets it display thousands of moving points, such as aircraft or ships, smoothly at 60 frames per second. Data layers cover aviation from a public flight-tracking network, maritime traffic near major ports and shipping chokepoints, thousands of traffic and public safety cameras, real-time earthquakes above magnitude 2.5, active wildfires, live news streams from more than two dozen broadcasters, severe weather events, space weather and satellites, and a list of active conflict zones. Beyond just mapping data, Third Eye includes a built-in toolkit for basic reconnaissance tasks: a port scanner, DNS lookup, WHOIS lookup, SSL certificate inspector, IP address lookup, and a scanner for known security vulnerabilities. It also tracks Bitcoin and Ethereum wallet activity and cross-checks addresses against a public US sanctions list, and it can plot geoparsed posts from public Telegram channels onto the map. Nearly all of these data layers work immediately using free, public APIs that do not require signing up for an API key, so a person can clone the project and see live data within a couple of minutes. It can be run locally with npm, or self-hosted with a single Docker command using a prebuilt container image, including support for one-click installs on CasaOS home server software. The project is built with Next.js and TypeScript for the application layer and MapLibre GL for the GPU-rendered map, and it is released under the MIT license, meaning it can be freely used, modified, and redistributed as long as the copyright notice is kept.
