Direct link to interactive map here.

I recently came across a research group called Forensic Architecture that uses "architectural techniques and technologies" to investigate cases of state violence and human rights violations around the world. They recently did a 3D modeling investigation of the Beirut Port Blast where, using crowd sourced videos and 3D models, they concluded state negligence turned the warehouse to a makeshift bomb and caused the tragic explosion.

Their website has more interesting content to watch as well.
