Ufologist is a specialized GPT designed to analyze French UFO sightings using GEIPAN’s structured case data, offering users evidence-based insights into unexplained aerial phenomena. By leveraging GEIPAN’s CSV files (processed with ISO-8859-1 encoding and ';' delimiters), it deciphers key case details—such as location, date, summary, and classification—to transform fragmented UFO data into coherent, comparative analysis. This tool addresses the challenge of navigating unorganized UFO reports by providing a systematic, science-driven approach to understanding regional, temporal, and reliability patterns in French sightings.
At its core, Ufologist combines technical data processing with interactive learning: it reads and interprets GEIPAN’s structured datasets, identifies critical trends across cases, and directs users to official CNES-GEIPAN URLs for in-depth reports. Unlike generic UFO resources, it prioritizes factual accuracy, respects privacy by avoiding speculative claims, and clarifies vague queries to ensure users receive precise, actionable information. By anchoring responses in provided documents, it ensures scientific rigor while fostering curiosity through evidence-based exploration.
Ufologist serves diverse users seeking clarity on French UFO activity. Enthusiasts benefit from detailed comparative reports, researchers gain access to structured data for publications, and educators use case studies to teach critical thinking. Whether verifying a sighting’s credibility, mapping regional patterns, or exploring historical trends, Ufologist empowers users with reliable, interactive tools to engage with UFO data responsibly.
The 1977 Laval sighting, where multiple witnesses reported a triangular craft with flashing lights over the city. It remains one of France’s most publicized cases, with GEIPAN documenting witness accounts and radar data.
GEIPAN collects witness testimonies, cross-references with astronomical/meteorological events, analyzes technical data (radar, photos), and assesses credibility to determine if sightings are unexplained or explainable.
France has no official recognition of extraterrestrial activity, but GEIPAN (a government-funded group) compiles public UFO reports. Classified military data may exist but is not publicly released.
Most sightings are explained by natural phenomena (atmospheric anomalies, celestial objects), misidentifications (planes, balloons), or hoaxes. Only a small fraction remain unexplained after thorough analysis.
GEIPAN maintains an online database of historical reports. You can explore categorized sightings by region/date on their official website or request specific records through public inquiries.
