The world, on one screen.
A live situational-awareness grid wired into the desk. Public feeds are pulled in, auto-classified into seven layers, geolocated, and ranked into a breaking stream — so the macro backdrop to your trades sits one tab away. Only headlines, sources and links are shown; every item clicks through to the original.
Live feeds in. Classified signal out.
The World Tracker engine fetches each source server-side, dedupes, scores every item into a layer with a confidence rating, and geolocates it. The dashboard above is that engine, live: every marker, headline and confidence badge on this page came from a source fetch, not a fixture. If the feed ever goes unreachable the grid falls back to a sample set and says so at the top.
Keyless + keyed
GDELT 2.1 (geo + theme tagged), USGS earthquakes (real coordinates), and seven RSS outlets are keyless. Alpha Vantage adds market quotes and sentiment-scored news when a key is set.
Seven layers
Each item is keyword-scored into conflict, military, nuclear, natural, economic, grid/comms or sea-lanes, with a confidence badge. A “~” marks auto-classified items — always check the source.
Cached, never stale
Sources are fetched server-side and held in a stale-while-revalidate cache, so a page load never waits on GDELT or a slow RSS host — you get the last good grid instantly while the next one builds behind it.
Context for every position.
