Aerial archive · Luftwaffe / NARA

Over 4,000 Luftwaffe recon photos across Belarus and Russia

German Luftwaffe aerial recon from the US National Archives is already in Discovera. Most frames are partially georeferenced — you only need to place two anchor points on satellite imagery.

  • Partial georeferencing out of the box
  • Two points — and the frame sits on the map
  • Fast and comfortable right on your phone

We'll show historical maps and aerial photos nearby — we just need a one-time location permission. We don't store or share your location.

Your browser will ask for permission — just once.

Maps

Georeferenced overlays

Archive sheets align with today’s terrain so you can compare eras at a glance. Add your own scans where licensing allows—in Discovera, layer opacity works like the slider here. This is a static preview, not a live map.

Map UI

Fine-grained map tuning

Three tabs cover how the map looks, what draws on top and how you manage tracks—without buried toggles or extra screens.

Profile

Detector arsenal in your profile

Add your machines and field kit, keep everything in one Arsenal tab, then compare models in the catalogue side by side. When you pack for a hunt, Ivanych is on tap to talk coils, specs and what actually makes sense on that soil—not generic forum guesses.

AI in action

Three AI tools — in your pocket

No external services. Analyse, dig deeper and restore — all inside Discovera.

  • Ivanych mentor

    Picks the right detector and coil, reads signals with you and reminds where to come back.

  • Find analysis

    Identifies material, period and rough value from a photo plus the context of the site.

  • AI restoration

    Pulls detail from under patina and dirt — the find becomes readable in seconds.

Try it yourself — tap the button under the photo:

Usage scenario

Before outing, in field, after outing

Why maps and chats alone are not enough: they do not keep point, photo, context and outcome connected. This route shows how Discovera does.

Discovera: choosing which map to bring to the field
Plan outing by maps Look at the area, prepare offline maps and choose where to start.
Discovera: adding a map mark
Mark signals Pins, presets and short notes stay on the map where the signal was.
Discovera: what to add — single find, field report or community actions
Pick how you publish One structured find, a field story or a community question—clear choices instead of a vague “new post”.
Discovera: new find — details, VDI, depth, material and publish
Log the find in the field Detector, VDI, depth, soil and photos while it is fresh—no more “what was that signal again?”.
Discovera Lab sheet — analysis, restoration, valuation and coin breakdown with Discovera coin prices
Layer AI on the same card Analysis, photo restoration, valuation or coin read—cost is visible before you run anything.
Discovera Lab: spectral analysis progress on a find photo
Watch the model work step by step Progress and status lines instead of a black box—you see the path to the result.
Discovera AI result — value index, historical note and conservator tip
Keep a structured outcome Notes, model confidence and “fill draft”—then you edit copy and publish when it reads right.
Discovera outing diary
Archive the outing Open journal and catalogue later with route and find context still connected.

Clans, raids & shared archive

In the field — your team stays in the loop

Discovera is more than a chat. Clan, shared map, role-based raids and a hall of finds: everything the team needs before a trip, in the field and after. Nothing gets lost in group chats.

FAQ

Short answers before you go.

Which devices does Discovera support?

The primary release is Android (Google Play). On devices without Google Services, some online flows may be limited, while core field workflows still work. iOS is not released yet.

Can I use Discovera offline?

Yes. Downloaded offline areas, imported maps, marks, journal notes and tracks remain available without internet. Chats, publishing and sync catch up once connection is back.

What do AI analysis and Ivanych do?

AI analysis reads finds from photos and place context. Ivanych is your in-chat mentor: detector and coil tips, signal reading, and practical advice in plain language.

How do pricing and coins work?

Core workflows are free. AI and selected map actions (analysis, restoration, binding) use Discovera coins. Price is shown before each paid action.

How private are my points and finds?

Finds support publication modes (private / clan / public), and location disclosure can be limited. Personal notes and drafts are never auto-shared to public layers.

Import/export and support contact?

KML import/export is supported for points and routes. For questions or bug reports: [email protected].

Let's go.

Every signal can be the start of a story.

Map, AI and clan are already in your pocket. All that's left is to pick up your detector.
