NIGHTWATCH — Public Camera Intelligence
A native macOS monitoring workstation for authorized public camera feeds. Explore real traffic and weather cameras, watch live video, and build custom monitoring walls.
NIGHTWATCH turns publicly available camera feeds into a focused, map-driven monitoring workstation for macOS.
Explore real camera feeds
Browse thousands of camera views from official sources, including live HLS traffic cameras from Caltrans and weather cameras from Finland’s Digitraffic service. Search by location, category, or provider, then open a feed in the dedicated viewer.
Built for monitoring
Arrange cameras in a multi-feed wall, explore their locations on a map, and save favorites, collections, and layouts. Native video playback handles supported live streams, while current images and unavailable feeds are clearly identified.
Privacy and responsible access
NIGHTWATCH uses feeds published by authorized providers. It does not scan for exposed cameras, bypass access controls, or fabricate live video. Personal preferences and collections stay on your Mac.
Native macOS
Built with Swift and SwiftUI, NIGHTWATCH uses AVKit for video playback and MapKit for geographic exploration. The project includes a modular provider system, local data storage, and tests.
NIGHTWATCH is an independent project. Camera content remains the property of its respective providers and is subject to their terms.
