Settings

Appearance

Auto follows your device's light/dark setting.

Time format

Show times in UTC

Units

Aviation uses feet and knots; metric uses metres and km/h.

Language

Interface and map labels Map labels in local names (as written on the ground)

English by default. The interface translates fully; map places translate where the map data has them, and streets and shops mostly keep their local names. Ship, airline and agency names stay as they are broadcast. Hindi and Bengali letters may join imperfectly.

Map

Globe spin speed 3 Show airports Callsign labels when zoomed in Draw trail behind selected aircraft Smooth motion between updates

Aircraft glide along their track between reports; buses, trains and ships slide to each new report instead of jumping. Turn off on a slow machine.

Refresh no faster than

Wide and global views refresh more slowly on purpose — the free feeds meter those by area, and polling the whole world every few seconds exhausts a day's budget in minutes. The status bar shows the live cadence.

Transit routes

Draws the line a bus or train follows, brighter ahead of it, with arrows for its direction. "All in view" adds the routes of every vehicle currently on screen.

About

Earth Tracker — build not stamped

Live at et.heapdump.app. Flights from ADS-B receivers, satellites from CelesTrak, transit from agency GTFS-Realtime feeds, ships from AIS, earthquakes from the USGS, storms from NHC/JTWC. All sources are named on each card.

Anonymous usage counts (no IP, no identity) help improve the map

Counted: page views, mode switches, searches, what kind of thing was selected, basemap and language changes, and how long the tab stayed visible. Never: your IP address, browser, account or precise location — only your time zone name. Untick to send nothing.

Changelog

What changed and when — new modes, new tracking in a region, big fixes. Newest first.
