Query broadcasted news worldwide and visualize them using spatial aggregations.
Project description
georapid-py
Query broadcasted news worldwide and visualize them using spatial aggregations. This python modules represents an idiomatic client accessing the Geospatial Knowledge APIs being hosted on Rapid API Hub. Please, check out the RapidAPI Account Creation and Management Guide.
Features
geoprotests API
Query protests worldwide and visualize them using spatial aggregations.
geofires API
Query wildfires worldwide and visualize them using spatial aggregations.
geojoins API
Joins two spatially enabled feature collections based on their relative spatial locations.
geodetic API
Enables various geodetic functions like buffers, points from distance and direction, points along path and wedge construction.
Ready to use
The geoprotests and geofires services offer ready-to-use geospatial features representing broadcasted news related to various themes. You can use these geospatial features to build various mapping and geospatial applications. The underlying serverless cloud-backend analyses raw geospatial locations of news articles provided by the Global Database of Events, Language and Tone (GDELT) Project (https://www.gdeltproject.org/).
Every geospatial result support the GeoJSON and Esri FeatureSet format out of the box. All endpoints support a date parameter for filtering the geospatial features. For best sustainability, the serverless cloud-backend queries the articles from the knowledge graph and calculates the geospatial features on-the-fly.
