OpenSky combines user-submitted reports with structured capture data and community review. When a sighting is submitted, details like time, direction, and movement are recorded through the app. Contributors can then analyze and discuss reports to help rule out common explanations such as aircraft, satellites, or atmospheric effects. OpenSky does not claim to identify objects — it helps users document and evaluate what they observe.
OpenSky prioritizes sightings reported within 100 miles of your current location to keep results locally relevant and actionable. This helps you quickly see what others nearby are observing without sorting through unrelated global reports.
Premium users can expand beyond the local radius to explore worldwide activity.
No special equipment is required. OpenSky uses your phone’s camera along with built-in AR guidance to help you record sightings more accurately. The app assists with alignment and environmental context so your report includes useful observational data.
