Hi Benjamin, for years I have created security-related maps for our high-crime community in rural South Africa. I stumbled across your channel, and it was a real eye-opener. The resources you share will make my work so much easier and so much better. A big, BIG thank you!
Really amazing stuff. Had no idea about these tools. The potential to export the GeoJSON files and then create a custom map in After Effecs using Geolayers is very exciting.
Another important thing: OSM is a volunteer-made map, so places where people spend less free time on the Western internet, will get mapped less (eg. China, Africa). You should also consider volunteering edits or donating.
You could look at open cameras through shodan, or through a bit of google dorking? I actually showed how to find public CCTV feeds that were indexed on Google in this video: ruclips.net/video/RONXurKNR4Q/видео.html
Perhaps the most important difference between osm and google is the license and the possibilities of use, since osm is actually free for any use, including commercial, while google you can only look at it and you cannot even collect the information.
Thanks Ben - that's very interesting. Regarding the Open Street Map wiki, is it not the case that the data is very hit and miss? I tried a test for CCTV, and then for manmade surveillance in London, and there were far fewer cameras than I would have thought (and none around Liverpool Street train station, which is obviously wrong). Is this just down to definitions of what cameras are in the public domain (rather than govt), or is there another category for this entirely? Really enhjoying your series though and have recommended it to a few people. Cheers
It's all contributor generated, and I don't think most people add CCTV cameras to the map. I personally don't bother with adding them. I mostly focus on pedestrian infrastructure, drinking fountains and toilets.
Find something you are passionate about, that gives you a sense of curiosity or feeling of doing good and piece together the dots online. There are so many potential points of research online. It could be mapping coral destruction, finding stolen dogs sold on websites, verification of community/local news claims, geolocating old world war photos, or reading the headlines and looking a little deeper at what the internet says to find trends and patterns.
I learned OSINT had a name by stumbling onto your series. All great content. On another note, how long are these runs that you need a map of refill spots and bathrooms?
Google did better by making their interface open enough to add any specialty data you fancy. There is no way Google could incorporate the many thousands of free data sets available and keep the UI manageable. Better to allow customization.
Google does area querying. It only searches a small area to make queries more manageable and overall cheaper for them. It's not the most informative but usually gets the job done for most people.
What I'm seeing becoming increasingly common is geolocation over time. Would you consider this as a topic? It would take this geolocation mapping to the next level.
Hmmmmm....you have piqued my interest.....Think I am going to have a rummage around your channel for a while....shake the tree so to speak and see what drops out......🤔🤔

You are very welcome
id love to see information about your community. maybe you could do videos on your communities security? maybe not because it would show your hand.
Awesome
Hi I'm from South Africa too and I'm in Tech, how far are you with your project
Really amazing stuff. Had no idea about these tools. The potential to export the GeoJSON files and then create a custom map in After Effecs using Geolayers is very exciting.
Glad it helps!!
I'm not sure why this entered my feed but having watched it I'm glad it did. I will have to play with this stuff. Thank you.
Welcome back and TYSM!! Requesting a GEPHI tutorial
It’s scheduled to do! But thank you 🙏
Amazing tutorial, Ben!!! Thanks for putting it together.
Thanks Doowan - really appreciate it 🙏

Hey ben. nice work. Is it possible to take it more detailed? Like waterstations and public toilets that are maximum 1 km from each other?
Ben I just found you, looks like I am gonna be a regular.
Welcome aboard 🙏
Thankyou so much Ben , How to watch the public cctv camera?

Thanks for subbing!
Great overview Ben. Thanks for putting this together!
Thanks Jason 🙏
Hello. Could I integrate this with Thunkable some how through an API and also have the capability of adding my own custom pins all over a given map?

Thanks, this video helped me a lot.
Glad it helped
Hey man, I am a fresher with basic cybersecurity knowledge and i want to build a career in OSINT could you recommend where i should start from??
Same question
Find something you are passionate about, that gives you a sense of curiosity or feeling of doing good and piece together the dots online.

How to download this whose software
It's not really a download so much as it is a web-based query. I have linked to the tools in the description below.

Ben- it’s Day-ta nor Dar-ta 😅
But seriously great video
yeah and a mean it ease not men at ease lol
I wonder why Google doesn't incorporate all this free data into Google Maps?
Google did better by making their interface open enough to add any specialty data you fancy. There is no way Google could incorporate the many thousands of free data sets available and keep the UI manageable. Better to allow customization.
Google does area querying. It only searches a small area to make queries more manageable and overall cheaper for them.
It's not the most informative but usually gets the job done for most people.
"You can see how this can be useful maybe if you're looking for CCTVs, ATMs, power lines..." Bro are you planning something???
What I'm seeing becoming increasingly common is geolocation over time. Would you consider this as a topic? It would take this geolocation mapping to the next level.
