Light Pollution Map vs Eclipse Run Usage & Stats
The map displays VIIRS/World Atlas/Clouds/Aurora/IAU observatories and the user SQM measurements overlay over Microsoft Bing base layers (road and hybrid Bing maps).
The primary use is to show VIIRS/DMSP data in a friendly manner, but over time it also included some other interesting overlays that concern light pollution like SQM/SQC, World Atlas 2015 zenith brightness, clouds, aurora and IAU observatories. If you have a permanent SQM reader installed you can add it to the map by sending me an e-mail.
If you want an analysis of radiance (VIIRS/DMSP) changes over a period of time, then please use the Lighttrends application (look under Help).
Please send comments and requests for new features via email (look under help)

Eclipse Run lets you pick the best spot for you to experience—live and in person!—Available in two languages (English and Spanish) it covers the eclipse of August 12th 2026 (From Iceland to Spain)
This app shows maps marking the zone where you can see the total eclipse. In the middle of the zone, is the line of maximum totality (over 2 minutes, depending on the location)
You just hold your finger on various spots at intersections between this line of maximum totality and a road. A dot appears.
Next, by tapping on that dot, you can learn what the weather will be like at your desired location. Plus you’ll get detailed driving instructions via Maps.
On your journey, Eclipse Run gives you alerts when you enter the zone of totality, and when you cross the line of maximum totality.
It’s easy to understand. It will help you experience this miracle of nature—totally!
The Plan Ahead feature, will give you even more information, such as historical average cloud cover and more!
