In Syria, known coalition, i.e. US bases, light up the night, writes an analyst Tobias Schneider. Some light markers over known Russian positions, no notable coloring for Iranian bases. A lot of people are going to have to sit through lectures come Monday morning.

In Locations like Afghanistan, Djibouti and Syria, the users of Strava seem to be almost exclusively foreign military personnel, meaning that bases stand out brightly. In Helmand Province, Afghanistan for instance, the locations of forward operating bases can be clearly seen, glowing white against the black map. Because all the Afghanis and all the people over there are not using Strava.

And so the places where Westerners are stationed and are recording their movements are very easy to spot. And now, these bases probably weren't exactly secret, but it's still pretty awkward. We're just publishing a roadmap of all of our forward bases for anyone that wants to, to just browse through.

But then, the internet completely lost its mind when someone found this weird data in Antarctica, shaped like a trapezoid on the heat map. Conspiracy Boards on Reddit gobbled it up and started cooking up all kinds of crazy theories. And from a distance, it appears to just be in some random location in Antarctica.

You zoom in and you see that there's some sort of research station there, but theories about an underground base started to spread. And although there may be underground bases in Antarctica, eventually cooler heads prevailed when someone realized that that's where they host the Antarctic Ice Marathon, which is still pretty wild.

Those people are their own kind of crazy, but it's not a secret Nazi UFO base. And although the Strava data did yield some likely candidates for secret CIA bases abroad, where they technically were not supposed to be at the time, A lot of popular underground base theories came up empty handed. No secret tunnels lit up the Denver airport.

No secret tunnels linked the Getty Museum to billionaire mansions in Hollywood, at least not on Strava. And that should be expected because you can't record your GPS data from underground. So obviously we weren't exactly expecting Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to record their secret walks to and from a hot dog and a pizza party. But there is evidence that sketchy stuff is going on underground.
