Camera index last updated October 23, 2026.
There are 27 live webcams in Madison, United States, on WorldEye — public feeds published by state511 and phenocam, all free to watch with no signup. Madison accounts for about under 1% of the 54,025 cameras WorldEye indexes in the United States, and every feed sits on the same searchable live map as WorldEye's 74,229 cameras worldwide.
Featured feeds in the index include USDA Dairy Forage Research Center, Prairie du Sac, WI, I-39/90 at County BB/Cottage Grove Rd and E Washington Ave at Continental Ln — and every camera in the list below links straight into the live globe with that feed open, so you can go from this page to a live view in one tap.
Every camera in the Madison index publishes still images that refresh at short intervals rather than continuous video. That is how the operators run them — and it is enough to judge congestion, weather and road conditions at a glance, which is what these feeds are for.
Use the grid the way it is meant to be used: a two-minute check of the cameras on your route before you leave. What is happening on the ground — a jam, a closure, a storm moving in — shows up on these feeds as it happens, not as a forecast said it would.

Every card is the camera's real live feed: snapshot cards refresh about every 15 seconds, stream cards play live in the grid (a few at a time, the same budget the map tiles use) and in full when you open a camera. Feeds are provided by their operators and public sources; a camera whose stream has gone off air shows as unavailable rather than playing a recording.
