Three free embeds
Each widget is a self-contained responsive iframe with no advertising or external frontend dependencies. It loads a server snapshot immediately, refreshes once per minute, and links back to the relevant PocketWorld experience.
Live flights
Shows the current aircraft count and a compact sample of callsigns, routes and telemetry from the latest public snapshot.
<iframe src="https://pocketworld.org/widget/flights" title="Live flights by PocketWorld" width="100%" height="430" loading="lazy"></iframe>Recent earthquakes
Shows recent seismic events with magnitude, location and depth from the normalized earthquake feed.
<iframe src="https://pocketworld.org/widget/earthquakes" title="Recent earthquakes by PocketWorld" width="100%" height="430" loading="lazy"></iframe>ISS position
Shows the latest available International Space Station latitude and longitude, then refreshes the position automatically.

The free widgets include a visible Powered by PocketWorld attribution link. Do not remove the attribution, proxy the iframe as your own content, or use the feeds for safety-critical decisions. For custom branding, historical data or higher-volume commercial use, contact PocketWorld.
Embeds are views of the same public data
Each widget is a compact, read-only entry into a PocketWorld dataset. The host page remains responsible for explaining the context in which the embed appears, while the widget retains PocketWorld attribution and a path back to the full source view. Widgets can be temporarily empty when an upstream feed has no current observations; they must not replace emergency warnings or operational instruments.
Widget data sources
Widgets use the same normalized PocketWorld endpoints and source attribution as the main application. Flights use public ADS-B providers, earthquakes use USGS and EMSC, and ISS position uses the configured public position provider.
Frequently asked questions
Do the widgets need an API key?
No. The public iframe widgets work without registration or a key.
How often do they update?
They render a server snapshot immediately and request a fresh public API response every 60 seconds.
Can I remove the attribution?
The free widgets require the visible Powered by PocketWorld link. Contact PocketWorld about custom commercial embeds.
