PlanetEar: God's Eye View

A God's-eye view of Earth, live — watch flights cross the sky and look through real traffic cameras, right from your iPhone. PlanetEar turns your iPhone into a window on the living planet. Spin the globe and watch real aircraft cross the sky, track satellites and the ISS passing overhead, feel earthquakes the moment they're reported, check the weather anywhere, peek through thousands of public traffic cameras, and tune in to internet radio from any city you touch. Then keep going — out past the atmosphere to the Solar System itself. A dozen ways to explore, every one powered by free, openly-licensed public data, rendered natively on your device. LIVE ABOVE YOU • Aircraft — real ADS-B flight traffic, tap any plane for its route and details • Satellites & ISS — see what's overhead right now, with live orbital tracks • Space weather, launches, and the people currently in space ON THE GROUND • Earthquakes — worldwide, live from USGS, sized and coloured by magnitude • Weather — conditions anywhere you tap, by voice or by touch • Traffic cameras — thousands of public street and highway cameras across London and California • Look Around — drop into real street-level imagery • Internet radio — thousands of live stations; touch a place, hear it BEYOND THE SKY • Solar System — fly out to the planets, rendered from real NASA/JPL data • Natural events, submarine cables, bikeshare, and more — sixteen live layers in all MADE TO LOOK BEAUTIFUL • Cinematic native rendering, from orbit to the Solar System • Optics modes — thermal, night-vision, and more, over the live map • Voice control — just ask ("weather in Tokyo", "show cameras near London") PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE There is no server to send your data to. No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no tracking, no API keys to configure. Every layer is free and openly licensed, and each source is credited in-app under Settings → Data & Attribution. Location, camera and microphone are used only on your device, only for the features you turn on. FREE PlanetEar is free. Just open it and fly. CAMERA COVERAGE 70,000+ cameras. Webcams worldwide via Windy — most countries are covered (refreshed still images; density varies by region). Live-streaming and traffic cameras in selected regions: United Kingdom (London), United States (California), Norway, Canada (British Columbia and Calgary) and Australia (New South Wales). Of the 70,000+, roughly 2,300 are continuous live streams and 900 are short looping clips — the rest are refreshed stills. More regions are added over time. JUST ASK — VOICE Tap the mic and say things like "show me the nearest camera" or "take me to the ISS." Voice commands work in English. Note: PlanetEar is for information and enjoyment only. Aircraft, satellite, earthquake, weather and camera data are shown for general interest and must not be relied upon for navigation, aviation, emergency or safety-critical use.
