Explore what's in front of you

Point your phone at the skyline and we'll mark where known peaks should be, from your position and the direction your camera faces.

Camera. Shown only on your screen. Identify peaks checks a frame visually on your phone; nothing is uploaded.
Motion and compass. Tells us which way the camera points. Your browser may ask separately.
Location. Needed to work out bearings to each peak. Kept on your device; you can pick a viewpoint instead.

Use my device locationUse open map data: check terrain for ridges that might hide a peak, and find rivers near you. This sends your location, rounded to ~100 m (terrain) or ~1 km (rivers), through our server to OpenTopoData and OpenStreetMap's Overpass API.

Labels are estimates from geometry, not visual detection. A peak can be in that direction and still be hidden by cloud or a ridge. The live view works in and around Nepal, wherever the Himalaya could be in view. Elsewhere, you can pick a Nepal viewpoint to explore.
