Global events.
Connected. Ready to build.

These six examples were selected from GDELT Cloud results. “Found” means the same development was located in the tested queries; “Related report” describes another action in the same dispute. “Not located” does not establish absence from a provider’s corpus. All three APIs returned other local reporting.

We chose Lyon, Durban, Recife, Surabaya, Pune and Winnipeg before retrieval. GDELT Cloud used 50-km Event queries, surrounding Story bounding boxes and city-name Story searches. All seven requested dates had complete serving evidence. These selected examples demonstrate local reporting; they do not measure worldwide recall or street-level coordinate accuracy. A city centroid can represent a broader reported location.

Bigdata used resolved place entities and targeted news searches. NewsAPI.ai used occurrence-location filters, with a separate place-concept refinement where needed; publisher location is a different filter. Document publication dates, cluster dates and Event action dates differ, as do native geographic boundaries. Returned documents, articles, clusters and coded Events are different units. Seerist was reviewed through public documentation only.

The international example uses three separate native Story records for the same reported development, not a single merged cluster. Source language does not establish publisher country or independent corroboration. Display headlines are concise editorial labels; the native fields below retain the returned wording.
