Live webcams

Webcam imagery remains the property of its operators. Link-only sources open on the operator's own website; the app never embeds their imagery. Alongside the feeds named below, the app links out to other link-only operators (for example Kystnor, SkylineWebcams, harbour authorities, ski resorts and regional tourism sites) on the same never-embedded basis.

  • KHO / UNIS - All-sky and outdoor cameras at the Kjell Henriksen Observatory, Svalbard. Link only; the app opens KHO's own pages and does not show their imagery. © Kjell Henriksen Observatory / UNIS. kho.unis.no
  • Statens vegvesen - Roadside cameras across Northern Norway, embedded in the app and normally served through our own server. Contains data under the Norwegian licence for Open Government data (NLOD) 2.0 distributed by Statens vegvesen. Source: the Webkamera dataset.
