Every Bomb Dropped By UK, USA and Allied Forces (excluding Soviets)
The data comes from the US Military's Theater History of Operations (THOR) Data set for World War 2.
This dataset combines digitized paper mission reports from WWII. It can be searched by date, conflict, geographic location and more than 60 other data elements to form a live-action sequence of the air war from 1939 to 1945. The records include U.S. and Royal Air Force data, as well as some Australian, New Zealand and South African air force missions.
Note that bombing by RCAF, RAAF, RNZAF, South African, Polish, Norwegian, Dutch, French and Czech crews operating within the RAF structure in the European Theatre of Operations is consolidated into the RAF figures for the purposes of this map.
Bombing by crews from those nations in Africa and the Pacific Theatre is shown separately on the map.
Soviet bombing efforts are not shown
