Metacarta.com - Bringing Geography to Your Desktop

MetaCarta offers map driven geographic search; essentially, with MetaCarta users can leverage geographic data for a wide variety of purposes, among which are: intelligence gathering, environmental analysis, infrastructure monitoring, disease tracking, and information discovery. Their technology is focused on two key areas: geographic entity extraction and resolution, e.g. pinpointing references to place names and regions with specificity, and also information retrieval. Their products include geographic text search, geOdrive, an energy industry specific tool, GeoTagger which parses documents and extracts geographic references, resolving geographic meanings intended by the author, and GeoIntel, a service for the Petrol industry.

 
  In their own words  

"MetaCarta's unique technology combines traditional text (keyword) search with powerful geographic search so you can find content about a place and view the results on a map. We work with any mapping system and can help you locate unstructured information in just about any format across the Internet, file shares, and content management systems or repositories."
