MetaCarta Technology
MetaCarta technology could offer a new way of navigating your directory through the use of geography. We would like to have a discussion to talk on if there is a business case to help with the monetization of your site!
Who is MetaCarta?
MetaCarta was founded in 2001 and has spent the last 6 years delivering unstructured geographic intelligence to major US intelligence agencies including the DOD, FBI, DHS and DIA. Over the years, MetaCarta expanded into the oil and gas space working with the largest oil and gas companies around the world including Shell, Chevron and BP. MetaCarta has recently fielded inquiries by media companies looking to utilize our unique capabilities to drive local content monetization.
What does MetaCarta do?
MetaCarta utilizes patented natural language processing technology and the largest commercially available gazetteer to rapidly parse unstructured documents such as news reports, web pages, large text fields, messages, RSS feeds and blog entries to identify geographic references that can be mapped or represented as locally relevant information for users.
How can this benefit you?
This technology, integrated with your site, could automatically provide map-based representations of content enabling users to see where news is happening. This results in more page views, ad inventory and premiere sponsorship opportunities.
These capabilities could further differentiate you in your space and provide greater stickiness as users return for more local neighborhood content. Our Local Alerts capability can also push daily neighborhood content updates out to your subscribers.
