News on map

Inspiration

Location based news Visualize connection between news and countries

What it does

Display news article on a map

How we built it

We used reuters api to extract important information from news articles We used arcgis.com to display the data

Challenges we ran into

Both API broke down and it took a while to make it running There is no good documentation for SRF APIs Quite difficult to start with arcgis

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We learned new tools which can be really useful for future projects

What I learned

Time and team management

What's next for News on map
