Guardian Geocodes Events in Wikileaks’ Docs
The Guardian, one of three papers offered the documents before publication this weekend on the Web, offers a spreadsheet of about 200 incidents cited in the documents, with a location for each one. (MetaCarta tools at work?) The idea is to make them mappable by anyone who likes. The Guardian provides its own map distinguishing “attacks on civilians by NATO forces, allied troops attacked by friendly fire, Afghan units attacking one another and occurrences of demonstrations or unrest.”
