How-To Guide: View Alerts
Anyone can view alerts on the SkyTruth Alerts map.
SkyTruth Alerts shows the 100 most-recent alerts for the area you are currently viewing. To see a different set of alerts, you can zoom in or out, move around on the map, search for a specific location, select a date range, and/or choose to see only certain types of alerts.
To view an alert report:
Keyword Search:
You can search for alerts using keywords that appear in the report. Typically, this works best if you search for just one work. (This is because the content in a report can often contain code that you don’t see in the report.) Some examples of keyword searches you can do are:
You can also search for a Well API number or other unique ID. Because they often contain hidden code, it works best if you copy and paste the number into the keyword search box, rather than type it in.
Moving around the map and zooming in or out with a keyword search may slow down the map performance.
If you are not seeing alert types you expect to see in the sidebar, click Settings and ensure that the alerts types are selected for viewing on the map.
