How ERN works · Live & current source policy · Editorial principles
ERN distinguishes live video, refreshed live images, provider-hosted external live sources and reference images. Reference images are never presented as live. A source check confirms ERN verification at that time; it is not a promise about weather, visibility or uninterrupted provider availability.
