NO BARS
LIVE MAP.

A future unified view of public Meshtastic and MeshCore infrastructure, community resources and network status—built to help people understand the mesh without exposing private locations.

Concept developmentNot operational data
Use today’s network maps →Open Mesh Tools

This page is a project preview. The display is illustrative and contains no live node locations. Operational information must always be verified with the original network or service.

Planned layers

One map. Useful context.

The goal is not another collection of dots. Each layer should answer a practical community question.

Public network view

Bring together public, permissioned infrastructure data while preserving clear separation between Meshtastic and MeshCore.

LOCAL

Community context

Connect network information with community resources, responsible host opportunities and participating local businesses.

STATUS

Health over hype

Show source, freshness and availability so a marker is never mistaken for guaranteed RF coverage or emergency-grade service.

Build path

Small, useful releases.

The map will only advance when a phase can provide reliable value without weakening privacy or attribution.

01

Current links

Keep the existing NBC map as the reliable launch point for official and established community maps.

Available now
02

Permissioned local layer

Add approximate NBC infrastructure and Community Stops only when locations are public or submitted for display.

Planned
03

Unified live view

Connect approved MQTT and service-status feeds, with timestamps, source labels and safe public precision.

Future experiment
Non-negotiable

Privacy and accuracy rules.

Being technically possible does not automatically make a data layer appropriate to publish.

No precise home locationsResidential and personally identifying positions will not be published merely to place another marker on a map.
Public or permissioned data onlyInfrastructure appears only when the source already publishes it or the responsible operator authorizes inclusion.
Source and freshness displayedLive, delayed, submitted, simulated and approximate information must be labeled differently.
Not for safety-critical decisionsThe experiment is for education and community planning—not navigation, emergency response or proof of radio coverage.
