Real-time operational intelligence dashboard for Spain
Live flight tracking · Electricity grid monitoring · Weather radar — all in one map

Spain Situation Room is a real-time geospatial intelligence dashboard that aggregates live data from multiple public APIs into a single interactive 3D map. Inspired by operational control centers, it provides a unified view of air traffic, electrical grid status, and meteorological conditions over the Iberian Peninsula.

Built from scratch using Google AI Studio + Gemini.

• Real-time flight tracking — live aircraft positions over Spain with callsign, altitude, velocity and heading. Auto-fallback to simulation mode when OpenSky rate limits are reached
• Power grid visualization — 400kV and 220kV transmission line network with live electricity spot price from E·SIOS
• Weather radar overlay — precipitation radar tiles updated every 10 minutes via RainViewer
• 3D map — Deck.GL with pitch and bearing for immersive spatial awareness
• Layer controls — toggle flights, grid, and weather independently
• Emergency alerts — EMG counter for anomalous flight states
• NAC/INT counters — domestic vs international flight separation

# No API keys required for basic usage
# OpenSky Network free tier works without authentication
# Falls back to simulation mode automatically if rate limited

npm run dev
# Open http://localhost:3000

cd backend-export
pip install -r requirements.txt

python server.py            # Start WebSocket server

OpenSky Network provides free access to real-time ADS-B flight data. The free tier has rate limits — when exceeded, the dashboard automatically switches to a deterministic simulation of 200 flights over Spain maintaining realistic movement patterns.

E·SIOS is the official Spanish electricity system operator's data platform. Electricity spot prices are fetched from their public API.

RainViewer provides free weather radar tiles updated every 10 minutes globally.

• Real E·SIOS WebSocket integration (currently polling)
• Historical playback mode
• Alert system for airspace incidents
• Situation Room for other countries (Europe, global)
• Mobile responsive layout
• Export snapshots as PNG/PDF
