I worked mainly on the backend of this project. We used the Bing News API to pull news from different sources, and sort them based on location. Finally, we used semantic analysis to analyze the overall attitude of the article. Using articles from the same country, and their attitude rating, we rated countries based on their "happiness". We used the Google Maps API to visualize this data in a meaningful way, and used a Google Charts API to also chart the articles. Using all of this, we developed a new way to visualize and understand the world news.
