RCI Signals
Explore attention by country and the full governed current-source Actor Watch directory across available complete source weeks. The two lenses remain methodologically separate.
What this shows
Attention means how much a country showed up in the news and public sources we sample that week. A big change from its recent average can be a clue that something has changed and may be worth a closer look. More attention does not mean more danger or risk.

Small rings help locate tiny countries; they do not change country area or encode a value. Area size is geographic context only. Red marks the selected interface state, not danger. Cities are geographic reference points only; RCI Signals remain country-level and do not provide city-level evidence.

Country comparison for this week
Compare this week with each country’s recent average to see where attention has moved up or down. A bigger gap means a larger change from that country’s recent pattern.

- Source and sampling
- GDELT 2.1 GKG; one canonical 02:00 UTC sample each day.
- Week and coverage
- A complete Saturday–Friday period. Seven valid daily samples are required for a complete weekly observation.
- Attention this week
- The average number of sampled documents associated with that country across the seven canonical daily samples.
- Recent average
- The population mean of the exact preceding 12 calendar weeks, calculated separately for each selected week.
- Map legend
- Fixed absolute attention thresholds 1 / 3 / 8; bands 0–1, >1–3, >3–8, >8. These compare countries in the selected week.
- Comparison
- A descriptive comparison of this week with the country’s own recent average: (this week − recent average) / recent average × 100. It uses unrounded values; metrics display one decimal and percentages round to a whole percent. Close to recent average means exact equality, with no tolerance. A nonzero change that rounds to 0% is described as less than 1% higher or lower.
- Zero and missing evidence
- Zero is a real observed zero. When both values are zero, attention is unchanged. When only the recent average is zero, a percentage comparison is not meaningful. A current zero against a positive recent average is 100% lower. Not assessable means the required evidence is insufficient.
Attention does not measure risk, danger, threat, severity, probability or event truth.
Actor Watch uses separate evidence and current-status time conventions. Its fields are not interchangeable with GDELT Attention.
