Abstract

This paper introduces LACLICHEV (Latin American Climate Change Evolution platform), a data collections exploration environment for exploring historical newspapers searching for articles reporting meteorological events. LACLICHEV is based on data collections’ exploration techniques combined with information retrieval, data analytics, and geographic querying and visualization. This environment provides tools for curating, exploring and analyzing historical newspapers articles, their description and location, and the vocabularies used for referring to meteorological events. The objective being to understand the content of newspapers and identifying possible patterns and models that can build a view of the history of climate change in the Latin American region.
