A large amount of news and information is produced around various events and topics. Mapping and visualization can be useful ways to track this content. There is a need for tools that allow users to search and track news and information, and republish some of that news and information. Both the back-end and front-end systems allow for mapping and visualization of that information.
Managing News originated as a news aggregation and republishing platform heavily integrated with RSS/Atom. Users can track a diverse set of RSS/Atom feeds, visualize them, and republish selected reports on a platform that allows for mapping and pluggable visualizations. Managing News has subsequently added SMS functionality to the system. The system is based on Drupal, and integrates several open source projects including OpenLayers, SimplePie, and many Drupal plug-ins.
- Aggregate RSS/Atom news
- Republish news as RSS/Atom in customizable channels, or directly to Facebook, Twitter, or email.
- Show news as list, map, timeline graphs, or visualized in other ways.
- Search news.
- Integrate SMS input with SlingshotSMS.
- Configurable location tagging and mapping.
