Co11ateral writes about ShadowBroker, an open-source OSINT dashboard that aggregates live public intelligence feeds—aircraft and maritime tracking, satellite orbits, conflict reporting, GPS jamming, and more—into a single interactive map running locally via Docker. Built with Next.js, MapLibre GL, and a Python/FastAPI backend, it consolidates what would otherwise require juggling dozens of tabs into one prioritized view accessible at localhost:3000.
- Optional API keys enhance data; a language model agent can be attached to find correlations across feeds
- Telegram-sourced intelligence appears as red clusters on the map, often with attached media
- NASA VIIRS Nightlight and daily satellite captures are available as toggleable layers
- Antennas and Metastatic nodes are included, with the ability to tune in or send a message
- The project has been actively maintained for about six months with ongoing feature additions

Ground Station is an open-source, browser-based application for tracking satellites and celestial targets, controlling station hardware, and receiving, decoding, and recording SDR signals. Built for amateur radio operators, satellite enthusiasts, and researchers, it brings orbit visualization, multi-target tracking consoles, SDR waterfall analysis, packet and telemetry decoding, scheduled observations, and hardware management into a single web interface.
- Supports RTL-SDR, SoapySDR, UHD/USRP and virtual SigMF playback SDR
- Automated observations scheduled via APScheduler for AOS/LOS pass recording with rotator and Doppler rig control
- Frontend uses React, Redux Toolkit and Material-UI; backend uses FastAPI, Skyfield/SGP4 and Socket.IO
