- Worth noticing
- Its project roadmap labels sea work “Now,” naval and coast-guard monitoring “Next,” and aircraft data “Later.”
Field notes
The map interaction invites visitors to move across the water and tap to reveal the reported positions. Anopticon organizes its work into three named projects: Nereus for the sea, Argus for naval and coast-guard monitoring, and Aether for aircraft data. The homepage labels those efforts “Now,” “Next,” and “Later,” respectively, so the latter two are presented as future work rather than established capabilities.
