The project
One map to watch the world live
Argos Atlas brings together, in a single interface, thousands of public traffic cameras and context layers —airports, ports, power plants, live flights and ships— that today are scattered across hundreds of disconnected official portals. Our work is to find them, geolocate them, keep them alive and present them together, on a map you grasp at a glance.
The problem it solves
Public information exists, but it is fragmented. Each authority publishes its traffic cameras on its own portal, in its own format, with no common place to see them at once. For anyone wanting to observe a region —a journalist, a researcher, a mobility analyst or simply a curious person— that means jumping between dozens of websites. Argos Atlas removes that friction: one layer, one map, one way to navigate.
What we add
We don't install cameras or generate the images: we act as a re-publisher of already-open official feeds. The value is in what we do with them:
- Worldwide aggregation, normalising sources with different formats and licences.
- Geolocation and curation, so each camera appears where it belongs and stays alive.
- Cross-links and context: infrastructure, live flights and ships on the same canvas.
- An "everything connected" experience, built to explore, not just to look up.

Who it's for
Argos Atlas is used by very different people with a common interest: observing the world through open sources. From those who research and verify information from public sources (OSINT), to mobility analysts, aviation and maritime enthusiasts, or anyone who enjoys watching the planet in motion. The service is free: all it takes to get in is an account, which costs nothing either.
Commitment to sources
We always credit the source, never alter the images and offer a direct takedown channel for any owning body. You can read the detail in Sources and methodology and in the legal notice.
