Use the Issuegeographer to show on a geographical map where organizations in an issue network are based. The Issuegeographer takes Issuecrawler results, scrapes a whois.net service, and plots the sites' registration address (latitude / longitude of the city) to a geographical map.

As a starting point:

  • upload an Issuecrawler result file (.xml), or:

  • submit a list of URLs (either with or without the http://), one URL per line.

You can also choose to create an empty map and add the locations manually:

See the IssueCrawler movie for an explanation on how to use the Issuecrawler and the Issuegeographer.
