Floods: BBC shows the way to organise massive coverage
Press Gazette reports on the BBC using Google Maps to organise flood reports:
Written by Paul Bradshaw - Visit Website“After a few hours of work on his laptop, [broadcast journalist Oliver] Williams had created an interactive map plotting audio files of BBC Radio Berkshire reports — along with pictures and YouTube videos being sent in by the public — to the locations around the county that they referred to. Over the following days, BBC Berkshire journalists were able to add additional reports to the map as the story continued, including new flood warnings as they came in to the newsroom.”
