IRONSIGHT

Real-time OSINT command center for monitoring active conflicts. A single dashboard that aggregates open-source intelligence from news, Telegram, military tracking, financial markets, satellite thermal data, and live air-threat feeds.

Two theaters, one dashboard. A toggle in the header flips the entire dashboard between:

• Iran / Israel — the Middle East theater (default)
• Russia / Ukraine — the Eastern Europe theater

Every panel, map layer, and data feed re-points to the selected conflict. Your choice is remembered across reloads.

Built with Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Leaflet. No API keys required. Completely free to run.

IRONSIGHT does not own, generate, or claim credit for any of the underlying data. It is a viewer that surfaces publicly available, third-party, open-source feeds — all of which belong to and are credited to their respective providers (see Data Sources and Credits & Attribution).

Features

• Conflict Toggle — Switch the whole dashboard between the Iran/Israel and Russia/Ukraine theaters; selection persists in the browser
• Live Intel Feed — Per-theater RSS news aggregation with relevance filtering and sports/entertainment noise removal
• Telegram OSINT — Public Telegram channels scraped in real time with auto-translation (Hebrew/Arabic/Farsi and Ukrainian/Russian Cyrillic)
• Theater Map — Interactive Leaflet map with military aircraft, naval vessels, strike markers from news and Telegram, missile trajectory arcs, range rings, country-border overlay, and a distance-measurement tool
• Live Drone / Missile Tracker (Russia/Ukraine) — Real-time Shahed drone, cruise/ballistic missile, and glide-bomb (KAB) tracks with heading, movement trails, and confidence, rendered on the map and listed in the alert panel
• Air-Raid Alert Status — Israeli Home Front Command (Pikud HaOref) sirens for the Middle East, and Ukrainian oblast air-raid alerts for Eastern Europe, with audio notifications and on-map sirens/arcs
• Conflict Monitor — Categorized events (strikes, defense, diplomatic, nuclear) with per-theater geocoding
• Missile / Strike Tracker — Weapon-type classification and severity scoring
• Regional Threat Monitor — Per-country threat levels across the theater's neighbors
• Military Airspace — Live military aircraft tracking via adsb.lol, region-filtered per theater
• Naval Tracker — Known vessel positions (Persian Gulf / Red Sea / Eastern Med, or Black Sea / Sea of Azov)
• Defense & Markets — Defense-contractor stocks, indices, VIX, gold, USD via Yahoo Finance
• Crypto Markets — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, BNB with 24h price changes
• Prediction Markets — Live Polymarket odds relevant to the selected conflict
• Energy Markets — WTI, Brent, natural gas, heating oil, gasoline via Yahoo Finance
• Satellite Thermal Detect — NASA FIRMS fire/explosion detection, region-filtered per theater

Getting Started

Prerequisite: Node.js 22 (see .nvmrc; run nvm use if you use nvm). No API keys or environment variables required.

npm install   # or: npm ci
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 and use the THEATER toggle in the header to switch conflicts.

To build for production:

npm run build
npm start

Run with Docker

Prefer to run it isolated from your host (no local Node install, sandboxed dependencies and network)? A multi-stage Dockerfile produces a slim (~215 MB) standalone image that runs as a non-root user. No API keys or environment variables are needed.

docker compose up --build

Then open http://localhost:3000. Stop with Ctrl+C (or docker compose down).

Or without Compose:

docker build -t ironsight .
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 ironsight

To use a different host port, map it (e.g. -p 8080:3000) or edit the ports mapping in docker-compose.yml.

Tech Stack

• Framework: Next.js 16 (App Router)
• Language: TypeScript
• Styling: Tailwind CSS
• Maps: Leaflet / React-Leaflet
• XML Parsing: @xmldom/xmldom

Architecture

Each conflict is a config object under src/lib/conflicts/ describing everything theater-specific (map center/cities, keywords, RSS feeds, Telegram channels, alert provider, bounding boxes, etc.). A React context (useConflict) exposes the active conflict to the UI, and a useConflictFeed hook appends the selected conflict to every API request so the routes serve the right theater. Adding a new conflict is mostly a matter of adding a config file and registering it.
