Bigfoot–UAP Spatiotemporal
Correlation Analysis

An exploratory examination of temporal and geographic overlaps between cryptid sightings and UAP reports. Each case anchors on a cryptid event and identifies spatially proximate UAP reports within defined temporal windows using Haversine distance.

§1PRIMARY FINDING

EXPLORATORY — CO-INCIDENT CASES IDENTIFIED

Analysis of 3,999 cryptid reports and 134,521 UAP sightings (both geotagged, 1900–2025) identified 978 co-incident cases where a cryptid sighting occurred within 100 km of a UAP report within ±3 days. The headline finding: 508 of those cases fall within ±1 day — a 24-hour window on either side of the cryptid event.

This is an exploratory analysis. Spatial and temporal proximity does not imply a causal or behavioral relationship between the two phenomena. No statistical significance test is applied — the dataset is presented for researcher inspection.

DATA REVISION NOTE — 10 JUL 2026

An earlier run of this analysis (local test environment) returned 943 co-incident cases. The current figure of 978 cases reflects a reprocessing against the live production database, where a subset of UAP records that previously lacked geographic coordinates have since been geotagged. Those records were invisible to the spatial filter in the prior run and are now correctly included. No methodology or parameters were changed — the increase is entirely attributable to improved coordinate coverage in the UAP dataset.

ANALYTICAL APPROACH & CAVEATS

△Directionality — Analysis anchors on cryptid events (cryptid → UAP), not bidirectional. UAP proximity is measured relative to each cryptid sighting.
△No causal claim — Spatial and temporal co-occurrence does not imply a relationship between phenomena. Exploratory analysis only.
△Timestamp normalization — Event timestamps are normalized to local wall-clock time for temporal window calculations.
