    1h scan; card published ; 3 publisher pages; upstream origin unresolved 1–3.

    Government officials last-minute withdrew from a social workers conference, which was originally planned to include key officials from the Ministry of Social Affairs. The event, held on November 11 at the József Attila Cultural Center in Angyalföld, was a national conference on social work, and the officials had initially agreed to participate in a roundtable discussion. However, they withdrew due to last-minute surprise regarding the event's media presence, making it impossible for them to attend.

News-triggered public data atlas

Exact article spans resolve against a versioned public gazetteer before bounded public-data enrichment runs. The current public store contains 330 resolved places and 3239 of 10310 mentions matched to their own coordinates; unresolved names are not moved to a capital.

Heat counts distinct ingested news-event clusters. Grey means no ingested observation, not that nothing exists. A zero is a measured zero. Semantic place confidence is an unvalidated rubric, not a probability.
