SUMMA is an EU-funded Research and Innovation Action to develop a highly scalable open-source infrastructure for monitoring and interpreting news streams in a variety of formats, from TV broadcasts via satellite to RSS feeds to scheduled queries to news organisations’ and social media’s custom APIs for news dissemination. The platform can record, transcribe, translate, interpret and summarize news content in multiple languages and make it available through graphical user interfaces and database APIs.
