Welcome to Geoconfirmed
GeoConfirmed is a volunteer-driven open-source intelligence (OSINT) project dedicated to geolocating and verifying visual content—such as videos and photographs—from around the world. Our mission is to bring clarity and accuracy to events by confirming exactly where something happened, using publicly available information. While much of our recent work has focused on conflict zones, our methods and community are equipped to respond to any global event where visual media needs to be verified—whether it's a natural disaster, a military operation, a protest, or a humanitarian crisis.
If you’d like to support our volunteer efforts and help us continue this work, you can donate via our official BuyMeACoffee page:

Every contribution helps us stay independent, expand our capabilities, and keep providing free, trusted information to the public.
What We Do
We analyze photos and videos, often pulled from social media, to determine exactly where they were taken using satellite imagery, maps, and digital tools.
Much of our current focus is on the war in Ukraine. We track events like missile strikes, troop movements, and infrastructure damage to help build a clearer picture of what’s happening on the ground.
Our strength lies in our global network of volunteers. We collaborate to geolocate content, double-check each other’s work, and ensure accuracy.
We believe in open, transparent verification processes. Every geolocation we post includes visual evidence and detailed reasoning to support our conclusions.
Where to Find Us
- We’re most active on Twitter/X (@GeoConfirmed) and BlueSky (@GeoConfirmed.org), where we post detailed threads breaking down geolocations, often with annotated imagery.
- We also maintain interactive maps and dashboards to make our verified data accessible and easy to navigate.
How We Work
- We use tools like Google Earth, Mapillary, Sentinel Hub, and other mapping platforms.
- Our geolocations are always accompanied by breakdowns showing landmarks, lines of sight, and visual cues so others can verify our findings.
Why It Matters
Our work supports journalists, human rights organizations, and investigators by providing verified, open-source evidence. In doing so, we help build a clearer, more truthful picture of events—especially in areas where reliable information is hard to come by.
