How the dashboard works, where the data comes from, and what the numbers mean.
Iran War Map is a free, open-source intelligence (OSINT) dashboard that monitors the Iran–Israel military conflict in real time. It combines a live theater map, a structured event feed, AI-generated situation briefings, and prediction market odds into a single interface designed for researchers, journalists, traders, and those just monitoring the situation to follow the conflict.
The dashboard tracks verified and unverified reports of airstrikes, missile launches, drone strikes, naval incidents, ground operations, air defense activations, explosions, diplomatic developments, sanctions, cyber attacks, nuclear-related events, mobilizations, and casualty reports. Each event is geolocated on the map when coordinates are available and tagged with actor, target, source, and confidence level.
Events are ingested from a curated set of Telegram OSINT channels, news wire feeds, and social media accounts that cover the Middle East conflict. An automated scraper collects raw posts every two minutes. A large language model (LLM) parses each post into structured intelligence events—extracting title, event type, actors, location, and confidence. Events are deduplicated using canonical URL matching (including Twitter/Nitter normalization) and geolocated against a built-in gazetteer of conflict-relevant locations.
Iran War Map integrates live prediction market data from Polymarket for markets related to the Iran–Israel conflict. Markets are filtered, curated, and displayed with their current YES/NO prices and implied probabilities. The dashboard also generates independent probability estimates by combining recent OSINT events with LLM analysis, showing the estimated edge between our model’s probability and the market price. These estimates are informational and do not constitute trading or financial advice.
Every 12 hours, the system generates an AI situation briefing summarizing the most significant events, force posture changes, and outlook. Briefings are written in the style of a military situation report and are archived with headlines, key events, and significance ratings. Users can also query the “Intel AI” assistant, which answers questions using the site’s own OSINT event database and briefing archive via retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)—not the open web.
Running this dashboard is not free. Every event you see passes through hosted infrastructure, paid LLM APIs (parsing, briefings, market analysis), and retrieval + embeddings so Intel AI can answer from our own archive—not random web search. The scraper hits live sources every couple of minutes; maps and bandwidth add up fast, especially when the world is watching and traffic spikes.
We deliberately keep the core experience free and open so reporters, analysts, and anyone following the conflict can get a serious picture without a paywall. If Iran War Map is useful to you, your support keeps the lights on—and helps us absorb API bills and scaling when it matters most.

Iran War Map is an experimental beta project. It is not an official intelligence product and is not affiliated with any government, military, or intelligence agency. Events are aggregated and parsed by AI, which may produce incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate results. Confidence levels are model-assigned and not equivalent to human-verified assessments. Prediction market estimates are informational only and do not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. For life-safety decisions, always rely on official local authorities.
