About
Camivu is a map of the public webcams of the world with a player in front of them. Road agencies, cities, harbours, ski resorts, river authorities and hobbyists publish these feeds; Camivu finds them, checks that they still move, and files them by place and kind so you can open a beach in Portugal or a bridge in Tokyo in one click.

Most cams come straight from the bodies that run them: state and national road agencies, city traffic centres, river and weather authorities, port and airport operators, plus YouTube channels that stream a fixed view around the clock. Each source is credited on the attribution page. Duplicates are merged, feeds that stop moving drop out of the listings, and an operator can have a cam removed through the takedown form.
Every feed is probed on a schedule and ordered by what last worked: real video (HLS, MJPEG, YouTube) plays first, a refreshing still is the fallback, and a cam with several sources falls back rather than failing outright.
Two limits are worth stating plainly. Some agencies only serve their own country, so a cam that plays in Ohio may refuse a viewer in Oslo whatever happens at our end. And a camera can go dark between one probe and your click: weather, maintenance, a dead modem on a mountain. The page stays, the picture comes back when the camera does.
Nothing, and there is no account to create. Running costs are covered by ads. There is no paid tier, so nothing is held back behind one.
A cam that stopped playing, a wrong location, or a camera you want listed: contact has the right address for each. Rights holders should use the takedown form, which is read daily.
