Research Tools
Interactive instruments built on top of the document archive. Same data as the document database — different ways to see it.
UAP Sighting Map
Every mappable record in the archive, grouped by reported location, colored by release, with honest precision labels for broad-region records.
Release Comparator
Agency mix, file formats, event years, and location clusters per release — built to end the cumulative-versus-new-files confusion.
Archive Statistics
The whole archive at a glance: per-release, per-agency, per-format, and per-decade breakdowns, recomputed on every site build.
Video Browser
Filterable gallery of every released clip with in-page playback, record links, official source links, and standing chain-of-custody cautions.
Claim Tracker
Who claimed what, its current verification status, and what evidence would settle it — from the 1952 tape to the contractor loophole.
Why tools, not just documents
Individual records answer "what does this file say." Tools answer "what does the archive look like" — where reports cluster, how each release differs, which agencies contribute what. Patterns are not proof, but they are better questions. Every number here links back to the underlying records so you can check the source yourself.
