Hi, I'm Jacob. I built AuroraMap to help you catch the northern lights without the guesswork.
Between crunching real-time forecast data, maintaining accurate light pollution layers, and sending instant email alerts, I'm constantly working to make sure you never miss a geomagnetic storm. As a physics student, building this is a passion project, and I am committed to keeping it 100% free and completely ad-free.
If AuroraMap has helped you plan a successful chase (or saved you from a freezing night of waiting outside for nothing!) consider buying me a coffee. Your support benefits you, and all users of the site, in three ways: (1) fuels the servers, (2) pays for the email alert system, and (3) keeps the skies clear of annoying pop-up ads.
Wishing you clear skies on your next aurora adventure! Let me know if you have any feature requests.
