Several studies have been running using GDELT. In particular, data visualization techniques that take into account the spatio-temporal metadata of GDELT extracted events. GDELT offers different APIs to run analysis and a Google Big Query[^3] access to the database. GDELT exposes examples of pre-configures analyses via the analysis service. For instance, the Event TimeMapper visualizes events matching a given search over time.
