a very cool map ..

this is only a snap shot .. for the real thing, go to:

Some of that stuff looks kinda old, like the Florida public defenders office thing. Unless there was another incident that I'm not aware of, that was some time ago. How often is this site updated?

Also, unless I missed it, (admittedly quick glance) there isn't any explanation for the symbols in Australia and New Zealand?

 

MY fault .. always assuming others can see what I see though the usual maze of options.
its a weakness of mine ...

For those with interest, one can set the defaults of what you want to see,
the type of incidents, the duration of the incident shown at the map,
the location, etc ...

Look at the "SEARCH EVENTS" box as well as the box just below it with the FAQ,

additionally, the listings at the bottom of the site show every event they spot.

AND ANYWHERE on the site, placing the pointer on an event gives the brief description,
clicking on the event provides details AND usually a satellite map.


Is that a little better?

 

Thanks for getting me through the maze, but like I said "admittedly quick glance".
