Two Libraries Looking For A Story


I'm nonetheless convinced that animating Twitter information isn't the best means to use CartoDB's Torque library. I'm likewise pretty sure that the Torque library isn't the best means to map the electrical flow Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

I'm thence non overly impressed amongst Al Jazeera's map of Israeli-Palestinian conflict related Twitter messages. We hardly postulate an animated Twitter map to say us that the conflict is currently big intelligence all closed to the world.

What is interesting virtually this map is that Torque is beingness used hither inside CartoDB's Odyssey.js narrative mapping platform. To that extent the map is a skillful illustration of how Torque too Odyssey.js tin live on combined to practise an animated map of geo-tagged data, inward which interesting stories inside the information tin live on highlighted on the map.

Combining the ii libraries tin enable developers to practise real powerful animated maps of information too to genuinely explicate the stories too narratives that emerge from that data. Unfortunately at the instant the alone other illustration I've seen of Torque too Odyssey.js combined is some other animated Twitter map - Ramadan: How the World Celebrates.

I'm fairly for sure that quondam presently mortal is going to practise an amazing map amongst Torque too Odyssey.js. There is a lot of time-stamped geo-tagged information out at that topographic point simply waiting for mortal to map using Torque & Odyssey.js. It's simply non on Twitter.
