WildSpotter: Geographic Radar for the Campervan Community
Geographic radar for the vanlifer community. Find wild places to spend the night using pure geographic data. Instead of relying on collaborative reviews that end up saturating the same spots, WildSpotter analyzes real geographic data from all over Spain to reveal places no one has shared yet.
HOW IT WORKS
Each point on WildSpotter has been processed through a 6-stage workflow:
Radar: Scans OpenStreetMap data for dead ends, dirt parking lots, and clearings accessible by vehicle.
Terrain: Analyzes slope and elevation using satellite data. Flatter areas score higher.
Legal Check: Cross-references each point with 4 official Spanish databases: Natura 2000 Network, National Parks, Coastal Law, and the Cadastre's land classification.
Satellite AI: Our computer vision analyzes satellite imagery to assess soil quality, vehicle access, space size, and potential signs of a campervan community.
Context: Evaluates the surroundings: road noise, urban density, scenic value, privacy, and nearby amenities.
Score: Combines all the data into a confidence score (0-100) so you can find the best spots first.
