Ground footage forecast

Where footage will likely be geolocated tomorrow and the following days, based on the last 4 weeks. With reliability measured on past days, filmed units and posting accounts.

Tomorrow · Nov 6 3 days · Nov 6 → Nov 8 7 days · Nov 6 → Nov 12

Situation note

  • Last 7 days: 5 geolocated images, about 6 once late geolocations arrive; down 24% on the previous 7 days.
  • Tomorrow (Fri, Nov 6, 2026): about 1 images expected, between 0 and 4 on an ordinary day.
  • Most likely sectors within 7 days: Murad (Yemen) (33 %), Yemen (33 %), Taizz (Yemen) (21 %).
  • Most filmed units this week: Yemeni Armed Forces (2), 22nd Infantry Brigade (1), Ansar Allah (1).
  • Reliability measured over 22 past days: 3 of the 10 sectors announced were filmed within 7 days, against 3 for the “same as yesterday” rule. 42 % of images fall in a sector with no image in the previous 4 weeks: nothing can announce those.

This forecasts footage, not fighting: what GeoConfirmed volunteers will geolocate, based on what they already have. A sector without network or witnesses stays silent, and no past figure announces a new offensive.

“Ordinary day”: 10th to 90th percentile of the last 4 weeks' days. On replayed days, the actual figure of the main regions fell within this range 91 times out of 100.

04Measured reliability

The forecast was replayed for each day from Sep 9 to Oct 22, with only what was known the evening before. Probability recalibration is learnt on the first half (Sep 9 → Sep 30); figures below come from the second (Oct 1 → Oct 22, 22 days), unseen by the method.
