Social network
Introduction
We have begun assessing our aero-developmental data in terms of phenomena of the social network.
We have long documented as much location data as possible, for individual inventors as well as organizations. We have gathered corporate historical data as well as the involvement of individuals with organizations of all kinds. We have documented conferences, and we have documented correspondence between inventors.
We have been documenting all specific data, as precisely as possible, and we have drawn relation and context however and whenever possible. All of this has to do with innovation, and, gradually, industrialization.
Geographical information
A certain amount of disambiguation will be necessary here, particularly relative to the word region, which is a general concept not to be confused with official administrative units such as the région française, or the régions belges, for instance. The région française, as such, does not come up very often within our data, though its sub-unit, the département, comes up quite a lot indeed. Various of these usages overlap internationally, and we are not sure how far we will have to go into disambiguation.
