Ask strange questions. Get an honest baseline.
Combine names, climate, type and geography, then compare nearby public UAP reports. Every result shows its sample and the biases that could explain it.
Automatically detected associations
Ranked by effect size and group size. These are leads to investigate, not proof.

Slice the same evidence fifty different ways.
Coordinate distribution map
From the whole world to one country.
Every dot is an approved place with a published coordinate. Select a continent or country, then click a dot to inspect it.
Where the odd clusters
Countries, cities, continents and seasons compared.
Counts show catalogue concentration. Average weirdness and evidence rankings require at least three records so a single place cannot win by itself.
Countries with most oddities
Approved records by country.
Countries with the weirdest mix
Highest average weirdness, minimum three records.
Countries with strongest evidence
Highest average evidence score, minimum three records.
Cities with most nearby oddities
Grouped by nearest mapped settlement.
Cities with the weirdest surroundings
Highest average weirdness, minimum three nearby records.
Oddities by continent
How the approved catalogue is distributed.
Best-month availability
How many records include each month as a broad visiting window.
