Add a power-outage layer to the NOC dashboard map (next to aircraft/vessels in components/MapView.tsx).

  • Sources: Con Edison and NYSEG (Kubra storm center) outage maps expose JSON, but these endpoints are undocumented and can change without notice. PowerOutage.us sells a stable API if scraping proves too brittle.
  • Show: outage polygons/points, customers affected, and estimated restoration time.
  • Correlation value: wires-down/transformer calls on fire channels should line up with outage clusters — show nearby outages on incident detail.
  • Line work: no public feed for utility crews found; 511NY construction events (see the 511NY issue) cover some roadwork.

Fetch server-side with a schema check that alerts when an endpoint changes instead of silently showing nothing (see the AI-silent-failure lesson). Raised in the NOC/SOC dashboard OSINT review, 2026-09-27.
