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 233 resolved places and 1996 of 7077 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.
