This layer plots thousands of public webcams as pins across the 3D globe, spread over every continent — from coastal harbors and ski resorts to city squares, mountain passes, beaches and airports. Each pin sits at the camera's real location with its place name (city and country), category and view count; click one to open the live feed in an embedded player and watch that spot right now. The cameras come from Windy Webcams (windy.com/webcams) via its public API, the same community-contributed network Windy uses for its weather maps. Because camera locations rarely change, we refresh the catalog roughly every six hours, but the feeds you open are always live — a separate cleanup pass quietly drops cameras that have gone dark or frozen so the map stays watchable. We pull cameras per continent for an even global spread rather than clustering in one region, surfacing on the order of a couple thousand at a time. Webcams is one of about 29 live data layers on the same interactive Earth you can spin, zoom and click into; solo it here, or toggle it alongside weather, air quality and other feeds. No account, no paywall — just open the globe and look outside, anywhere.
Data source: Windy Webcams
They are public webcams from the Windy Webcams network (windy.com/webcams), accessed through Windy's API. It is a community-contributed catalog covering thousands of locations worldwide, the same network behind Windy's weather webcam maps.
Yes. We refresh the list of camera locations about every six hours because pins rarely move, but clicking a camera opens its live player, so you see the current view. Cameras that go offline or freeze are pruned automatically so the map stays usable.
On the order of a couple thousand at any time. We deliberately pull cameras continent by continent — North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania — so the globe shows an even worldwide spread rather than dense clusters in one area.
Yes. Each pin carries its place name (city and country), category and view count, and a preview thumbnail when available. Click to inspect, then open the embedded live feed.
