Public Earth Signals and Guides

A curious guide to the public data layers on LifeHubber Earth.

LifeHubber Earth brings together public source records, sky layers, visual context, and simple guides. Use this page to pick a tracker, source layer, or visual companion without mixing their meanings together.

Start here

Start with a signal

Choose a layer based on the kind of pattern you want to read. Focused pages are available for earthquakes, natural events, aurora, meteor fireballs, and satellite imagery; HantaData stays on the main dashboard.

NASA EONET layer

Natural Events

Recent NASA EONET source records from selected categories such as wildfires, severe storms, volcanoes, and landslides.

Public signal layer

Hantavirus Signals

HantaData public signal records shown as source context, not official health guidance or confirmed medical surveillance.

NASA/JPL CNEOS layer

Meteor Fireballs

A sky-and-Earth view of bright meteor/fireball records from NASA/JPL CNEOS, shown where source location data is available. Points represent peak-brightness locations in the atmosphere.

Visual companion

Earth From Public Satellites

A standalone NASA GIBS imagery page for broad visual Earth context, kept separate from event records, forecasts, and alerts.

Layer meaning

How the layers differ

Earthquake dot

USGS event point

A source-reported event point from USGS, with magnitude, depth, time, and location.

Natural event dot

NASA EONET source record

A NASA EONET source record. Some area or line records may use approximate center markers for readability.

Aurora glow

NOAA modelled grid value

A NOAA SWPC modelled forecast grid value shown as a soft glow, not a precise event pin.

HantaData dot

Public signal record

A HantaData public signal record. Some markers may be approximate country-level placements when source detail is limited.

Fireball dot

NASA/JPL CNEOS source record

A public fireball record with a source-reported peak-brightness location where available.

Satellite image

NASA GIBS visual imagery

A public imagery layer for broad visual context, not an event record or forecast point.

Reading limits

Read with source context

LifeHubber Earth is for curiosity, source records, and simple explanations. It does not make official guidance, safety-critical recommendations, medical advice, or LifeHubber-made risk rankings.

For safety decisions, use official local authorities and the original source pages.

Reader paths

Good first paths

I want visual Earth imagery

Open the standalone satellite page for NASA GIBS snow-cover imagery context.

How this fits LifeHubber Earth

Earthquakes are the default tracker on LifeHubber Earth. Natural Events, Aurora, HantaData public signals, Meteor Fireballs, and Satellite imagery are approved companion layers that broaden the site while keeping each source separate and easy to read.

The aim is a small, readable public-data observatory: useful source records, clear attribution, and simple explanations that do not turn the site into an alert or instruction service.

Earth dashboard

Open the public Earth signals dashboard

Turn layers on and off to compare source types, while reading each layer by its own source and meaning.
