The planet, in open data.

A wall of instruments pointed at the planet and wired to free, no-key public data: real-time seismicity you can hear, an air-quality map breathing over the cities, every nation sorted by the colour of its flag, the land-border graph as a puzzle, a species plotted across its global range, and a clock where the sun never sets.

Quake Listener

ATLA-005 ready
World Clock

A turning ring of two dozen cities, each ticking its own live local time, with a sweeping marker that tracks where on Earth it is solar noon and where it is midnight — the sun never sets on this clock.

ATLA-006 ready
Daylight Ribbon

A single heatmap of daylight hours across every day of the year and every latitude — the seasons, the polar day and night, the flat equator, drawn from pure astronomy.

Border Walk

Pick two nations and find the shortest walk between them across shared land borders — or learn that the sea wins.
