medianeuroscience / icore

This project introduces the interface for Communication Research (iCoRe) to access, explore, and analyze the Global Database of Events, Language and Tone (GDELT; Leetaru & Schrodt, 2013). GDELT provides a vast, open source, and constantly updated repository of online news and event metadata collected from tens of thousands of news outlets around the world. Despite GDELT’s promise for advancing communication science, its massive scale and complex data structures have hindered efforts of communication scholars aiming to access and analyze GDELT. We thus developed iCoRe, an easy-to-use web interface that (a) provides fast access to the data available in GDELT (b) shapes and processes GDELT for theory-driven applications within communication research and (c) enables replicability through transparent query and analysis protocols.

iCore site down? #56

Open profkenm opened 2 years ago

profkenm commented 2 years ago

Hi Musa and iCore team. I am using iCore (GDELT) data to write a conference paper to be presented at the Midwest Political Science Association (which is the largest political science association and conference) ​in Chicago in April 2022. The paper is a cross-national comparison of sentiment in news coverage of Covid-19.

The iCore site is down at present. Is that on purpose? Might you be able to bring it back online? Also, whereas most recently the data end on 03/30/2021, assuming it is coming back, is there any chance you might be able to bring it up to date (through, say, the end of 2021)?

Thanks very much. And thank you for iCore.

Ken

Hello Ken! Apologies for the delay in response. Yes, we are actively working on a rebuild for iCoRe and will have the service available with updated data by late February. We'll keep you posted!
