So what is it?

Osiris is an open-source intelligence dashboard that pulls live data from multiple public sources and displays everything on a GPU-accelerated interactive world map. Think of it as a single-screen command center for global situational awareness, you can see real-time commercial and military flight tracking from OpenSky Network, active earthquake readings from the USGS, NASA fire hotspots, over 2,000 live CCTV camera feeds from city traffic departments, satellite positions, and 25+ live 24/7 news streams from broadcasters like Al Jazeera, NHK, and Sky News, all displayed as clickable markers on the map. The map rendering uses WebGL via MapLibre GL (the same technology as high-end mapping tools) so it maintains smooth 60 frames per second even with thousands of objects on screen simultaneously. You toggle data layers on and off, aviation, maritime chokepoints, conflict zones, weather events, space weather, and the dashboard only loads what's visible in your current viewport. A built-in RECON toolkit lets you run network reconnaissance tasks like port scanning, DNS lookups, WHOIS queries, SSL certificate inspection, and CVE vulnerability searches against the US National Vulnerability Database. Most features work without any API keys, a live demo is available at the project's website. It's built with Next.js and TypeScript, deploys on Vercel, and is MIT licensed.
