This visualization uses the GDELT EVENT Dataset from the GDELT Project to create a heatmap visualization of global events monitored by GDELT that matched a set of search criteria. You can also download the underlying CSV file to load the coordinates into a GIS package for further visualization and analysis.
Use the sliderbar in the upper left of this visualization to adjust the display threshold for the visualization - this effects the number of namesets/articles a location must have before it is displayed.
The search criteria used to construct this heatmap:
Start Date = 04/06/2016 End Date = 05/02/2018 Actor1 Country: MMR Actor1 Type: MIL Actor2 Country: Actor2 Type: Event Code: 20 Event Quad Class: Event Country: BM Weighting: NUMEVENTS
Heatmap display courtesy of the heatmap.js JavaScript heatmap library.
