About UAP Globe

UAP Globe is an independent, non-commercial research archive of UFO and UAP sightings, plotted on an interactive globe and held to a single editorial standard: every case gets the same two-pass review, and every official explanation is graded as evidence rather than accepted as a verdict.

What this archive is

Each entry in the archive is a case file, not a news repost. It records where the sighting happened, what witnesses actually reported, what officials or investigators said about it, what the witnesses themselves believed, and a final assessment with one of five evidence tiers. The strongest cases here carry official paper trails, like the Pentagon-authenticated GIMBAL video and the Calvine photograph that the UK Ministry of Defence judged genuine. The weakest are circulated curiosities, kept and labeled honestly rather than quietly dropped, because a complete record of the phenomenon includes its noise.

How cases are selected and reviewed

Cases enter the archive from public sources: government releases, news coverage, research literature, and a daily sweep of community reports across the open web. Before publication, each is reviewed twice. The first pass asks how the material could be entirely ordinary. The second asks what it would be if real. The two passes are kept separate so a plausible mundane explanation cannot quietly erase a well-corroborated event, and a dramatic story cannot wave away an obvious balloon. The full standard, including why a debunk is treated as a claim with its own burden of evidence, is documented on the method page.

Where the data lives

The entire archive is published as open machine-readable data at /data/cases.json, including coordinates, dates, evidence tiers and source links for every case. Researchers and developers are welcome to use it with attribution to UAP Globe. New cases are added as the daily sweep verifies them, and the recent page lists the latest additions.

Independence

UAP Globe sells nothing, runs no advertising, and is not affiliated with any UFO organization, media outlet or government body. It exists because the public record of this phenomenon is scattered across databases, news archives and social feeds, and deserves to be in one place, on one map, under one honest standard of evidence.
