Interfaces for Accessing Geo-referenced News Archives

The news summary on the left side processes the Associated Press news feed with the Yahoo! Geocoding API and displays the results via Google Maps (81nassau.com/apnews). The second screenshot shows a geotemporal news browser that allows users to search a news database via query terms and time-interval sliders, and presents matching articles mapped onto a region of interest (Rüger, S., 2005, "Putting the User in the Loop: Visual Resource Discovery", 3rd International Workshop on Adaptive Multimedia Retrieval. Glasgow, UK).
