This listens to 6 LAPD scanner feeds 24/7, transcribes them with Whisper, and tries to figure out where things are happening. When it finds a location it geocodes it and puts a dot on the map. You can click any dot to hear the original audio and read along with the transcript.
Search box understands stuff like "shots fired last 2 hours" or "pursuit yesterday." The transcription is pretty bad sometimes because scanner audio is rough, and the location extraction is wrong more often than I'd like. But when it works it's a cool way to see what's going on around LA.
