About The UAP Map

The UAP Map is a curated, interactive map of documented UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) events that defy conventional explanation. Every case is sourced from credible authors, government investigations, or official archives.

Evidence Ratings

High Evidence: Multi-witness, government-investigated, radar-confirmed, or physically documented cases.

Medium Evidence: Single credible witness with supporting evidence, or multiple witnesses without physical documentation.

Speculative: Single-witness cases or events with limited verifiable evidence. Included for completeness but clearly labelled.

The 0.01% Principle

99.9% of UFO reports are misidentifications, hoaxes, or explainable phenomena. The UAP Map focuses on the 0.01% that resist conventional explanation — cases investigated by governments, witnessed by military personnel, or documented with physical evidence.
