Dockerized CLIFF
This repo contains a Dockerfile for building MIT's CLIFF geolaocation server. CLIFF takes text as input and returns a structured list of the places the text is about. It is built on Berico Technologies' CLAVIN geotagging and geoparsing software and Stanford's CoreNLP natural language parsing software.
Build the image using docker build and run using docker run. The server is exposed on port 8080 and the endpoint can be reached like so:
http://localhost:8080/CLIFF-2.0.0/parse/text?q=In%20Syria,%20two%20airstrikes%20west%20of%20Al-Hasakah%20successfully%20struck%20multiple%20ISIL%20buildings,%20including%20an%20air%20observation%20building%20and%20staging%20areas.
