The GDELT Project

Nepal Earthquake: Realtime Disaster Cataloging

As with Typhoon Ruby and Cyclone Pam, GDELT is once again collaborating with OCHA, STBF, MicroMappers, and QCRI, this time to provide a live stream of all available global news coverage of the Nepal Earthquake, including all available monitored imagery of affected areas and a live catalog of publicly reported global aid commitments and activity, through our GDELT Live Stream for UN OCHA/ReliefWeb Disasters.  This dedicated data stream filters the GDELT 15 minute updates and delivers a list of just coverage relating to any of the active ReliefWeb disasters in CSV, JSON, and GKG 2.0 formats, to enable direct import into humanitarian applications.
