New Mapping All The Books
January 16, 2019
Edit
Earliest this calendar month the GDELT Project made available information from 3.5 i M m digitized books on Google BigQuery. The information is available inwards 2 assort BigQuery datasets:
Internet Archive Book Collection inwards Google BigQuery (includes fulltext for 1800-1922 books)
HathiTrust Book Collection inwards Google BigQuery
There is apparently a lot of mapping potential inwards all those 3.5 i M m books. For event you lot could map the issue of books published yesteryear place yesteryear year. This GDELT Project map uses CartoDB's Torque library to create but that.
The map shows all the books from the HathiTrust collection. The HathiTrust collection contains millions of titles digitized from libraries some the world. This map shows the locations of all the locations mentioned inwards the collection from 1800-2011. One obvious designing is the increase of North American locations mentioned inwards the books every bit the years pass.
If you lot desire to outset using the 2 BigQuery tables yourself together with hence this GDELT Project introduction Google BigQuery + 3.5M Books: Sample Queries should examine useful. The article includes a issue of sample queries which you lot tin run on either of the 2 BigQuery datasets. It too includes a duad of maps made from information obtained from sample queries.
One of the event maps shows locations made inwards Civil War related books (screenshot above). The other event maps all books published 1900 to 1920 amongst the bailiwick tag 'World War'.
