Public sky, weather, storm, aurora & nature cams in one map and player
 

Hi {{contact_name}},

I run skywatch.monster+more!, a free, ad-free non-profit project that brings public live sky, weather, storm, aurora and nature cameras together on one map and player, so anyone can watch the sky anywhere. Every camera is credited to its source with a link back.

I'm writing to ask whether we may include cameras from {{org}} on skywatch.monster. We'd be listing {{cams}}.

What we're asking:
{{what_we_ask}}

How we'd use them

•Credit and a link back: each camera names {{org}} as the source, links to your site, and is listed on our public credits page.
•Light load: video plays straight from your servers (we don't re-host it). For still images we fetch at most one image per camera per minute, and only while someone is looking at it. Our health checks are light and rate-limited. If you'd rather, and only with your permission, we can relay a stream ourselves so your servers see a single connection from us however many people watch.
•Stills, made watchable: we also turn still camera images into a live video stream that's easy to watch, credited to you.
•Your terms come first: we'll use the feed URL, credit line and rate limit you prefer.
•Easy to stop: reply to this email and we'll change or remove a camera promptly.

Transparency
No ads, no sales and no paid access. Donations are our only funding and go solely to server costs; donations and costs are tracked publicly at https://skywatch.monster/donate, and every outbound transaction from the project wallet can be checked on-chain.

Would that be OK? A one-line reply is plenty, for example "yes" or "yes, credit it as: Camera courtesy of ...". If someone else looks after these cameras, I'd be grateful if you could forward this to them.

Thank you,

Jon Surman
