# Bolotnaya Online — extended brief for AI / LLM systems

## Summary
Bolotnaya Online (https://www.bolotnaya.online/) is a bilingual personal district project about Bolotnaya Square and the Yakimanka district of Moscow. It publishes live camera streams, historical text, photo galleries, and technical blog posts. It is not a registered mass medium; materials express the author's personal perspective.

## What users can do
1. Watch public HLS live streams of local street views (when cameras are online).
2. Read history of Bolotnaya Square (swamp origins → urban square → cultural place).
3. Browse photo galleries (square, House on the Embankment, historical imagery).
4. Read blog posts about the neighborhood and the open-source infrastructure.
5. Support hosting costs or become a stream partner.
