We'd like your help putting news articles on the map.

This is a site that lets you search the Guardian's new API and add location information to articles. All the place data we collect is being made available to anyone who wants it.

Sounds Great! Get me started! →

How does it work?

Begin by searching for news articles in the search box above, or try browsing recent articles. Follow the links to add places to articles you're interested in.

You can view recently geocoded articles on a map, and search for articles in specific places too.

We also have feeds, data downloads and an API.

Who Made This and Why?

Stamen Design made this with input from Matt McAlister and Chris Thorpe at the Guardian, with a little bit of help from our friends at CloudMade and Flickr.

We want to showcase what's available in the Guardian's new API and hopefully improve it at the same time.
