How locations & classifications work

Category colors use conservative headline-only rules, never image captions or excerpt background. Reported armed violence requires explicit attack or fighting language; warnings, possibilities, denials, questions, historical/legal stories and aftermath are excluded. Ambiguous reports remain general context. Open “Why this label?” beneath a headline to inspect its cue. Labels are not independently verified event types, event locations or severity ratings. A report has one primary topic. Locations are inferred from explicit place names and selected aliases in headlines and feed excerpts, using a worldwide city gazetteer and country directory. Clear headline city, state and province references take priority. Publisher excerpts can refine a state only to a compatible city; unrelated live-blog excerpts cannot override headline geography. Ambiguous names retain broader centers. City pins are approximate city centers, never exact incident coordinates. Country fallbacks use source-listed national capitals and are labeled as country references, not events in the capital. Seas and other non-country areas retain regional reference points. UN headquarters and deliberative-body reporting can use the New York headquarters reference; explicit field locations and other offices retain their geographic matching. Dashed outlines indicate country references; double outlines indicate states or provinces; solid outlines indicate city centers; cyan rings indicate institutional references. Publisher datelines and government statements alone do not establish city locations. City data: GeoNames (CC BY 4.0); state/province label points: Natural Earth (public domain). A marker can represent reporting about a place, rather than an event there. Reports with no matched place remain available under “No matched place” and in the global list. Matching a location does not verify a report. Empty map areas indicate no matched reports in this sample, not safety or absence of violence. Armed-group and organized armed-violence reporting is included; inclusion does not classify every event as a war. This is a sampled feed, not an exhaustive worldwide incident database.

TRANSPARENCY

Sources before speculation.

News combines topic-matched GDELT, 80 direct source channels (publisher RSS feeds and a public publisher index) and nine regional Google News searches. Choose a 24-hour, 72-hour or 7-day window. Up to 600 deduplicated reports are retained. This is sampled English, Spanish and Portuguese coverage and cannot include every report or conflict. Feeds refresh on opening, manually, and every five minutes while visible. Availability and coverage vary.

Map markers prefer headline city, state and province references. Compatible excerpts can refine those locations. City data uses GeoNames (CC BY 4.0); state/province label points use Natural Earth (public domain). Unrelated live-blog excerpts cannot override headline geography. Ambiguous or missing local locations use the source-listed national capital as a country reference. Non-country areas retain regional reference points. UN headquarters reporting can use an explicitly labeled New York institutional reference. All pins are approximate centers. They are not verified incident locations or safe-zone boundaries. Matching can be incomplete or ambiguous.

Category photographs are AI-generated illustrations. They do not depict the specific events in the news feed. Each report links to its source or its Google News publisher link.

Economic indicators use published FRED observations (EIA, CBOE and Federal Reserve sources) and ECB exchange rates via Frankfurter. Dates and source availability are shown; these are not live quotes. If live economic retrieval fails, saved source observations are explicitly labeled with their retrieval date. Country centers use mledoze/countries (ODbL). Our World in Data provides UCDP conflict-death estimates with reporting periods and possible revisions. Official travel advisories do not guarantee safety.

False-flag allegations remain unassessed. Prediction markets and social engagement are not factual verification. Market rankings cover samples; platform trader leaderboards open on the original sites.
