Elie Habib 02555671f2 refactor: consolidate country name/code mappings into single canonical sources (#2676)
* refactor(country-maps): consolidate country name/ISO maps

Expand shared/country-names.json from 265 to 309 entries by merging
geojson names, COUNTRY_ALIAS_MAP, upstream API variants (World Bank,
WHO, UN, FAO), and seed-correlation extras.

Add ISO3 map generator (generate-iso3-maps.cjs) producing
iso3-to-iso2.json (239 entries) and iso2-to-iso3.json (239 entries)
with TWN and XKX supplements.

Add build-country-names.cjs for reproducible expansion from all sources.
Sync scripts/shared/ copies for edge-function test compatibility.

* refactor: consolidate country name/code mappings into single canonical sources

Eliminates fragmented country mapping across the repo. Every feature
(resilience, conflict, correlation, intelligence) was maintaining its
own partial alias map.

Data consolidation:
- Expand shared/country-names.json from 265 to 302 entries covering
  World Bank, WHO, UN, FAO, and correlation script naming variants
- Generate shared/iso3-to-iso2.json (239 entries) and
  shared/iso2-to-iso3.json from countries.geojson + supplements
  (Taiwan TWN, Kosovo XKX)

Consumer migrations:
- _country-resolver.mjs: delete COUNTRY_ALIAS_MAP (37 entries),
  replace 2MB geojson parse with 5KB iso3-to-iso2.json
- conflict/_shared.ts: replace 33-entry ISO2_TO_ISO3 literal
- seed-conflict-intel.mjs: replace 20-entry ISO2_TO_ISO3 literal
- _dimension-scorers.ts: replace geojson-based ISO3 construction
- get-risk-scores.ts: replace 31-entry ISO3_TO_ISO2 literal
- seed-correlation.mjs: replace 102-entry COUNTRY_NAME_TO_ISO2
  and 90-entry ISO3_TO_ISO2, use resolveIso2() from canonical
  resolver, lower short-alias threshold to 2 chars with word
  boundary matching, export matchCountryNamesInText(), add isMain
  guard

Tests:
- New tests/country-resolver.test.mjs with structural validation,
  parity regression for all 37 old aliases, ISO3 bidirectional
  consistency, and Taiwan/Kosovo assertions
- Updated resilience seed test for new resolver signature

Net: -190 lines, 0 hardcoded country maps remaining

* fix: normalize raw text before country name matching

Text matchers (geo-extract, seed-security-advisories, seed-correlation)
were matching normalized keys against raw text containing diacritics
and punctuation. "Curaçao", "Timor-Leste", "Hong Kong S.A.R." all
failed to resolve after country-names.json keys were normalized.

Fix: apply NFKD + diacritic stripping + punctuation normalization to
input text before matching, same transform used on the keys.

Also add "hong kong" and "sao tome" as short-form keys for bigram
headline matching in geo-extract.

* fix: remove 'u s' alias that caused US/VI misattribution

'u s' in country-names.json matched before 'u s virgin islands' in
geo-extract's bigram scanner, attributing Virgin Islands headlines
to US. Removed since 'usa', 'united states', and the uppercase US
expansion already cover the United States.

World Monitor Dashboard


What It Does

  • 435+ curated news feeds across 15 categories, AI-synthesized into briefs
  • Dual map engine — 3D globe (globe.gl) and WebGL flat map (deck.gl) with 45 data layers
  • Cross-stream correlation — military, economic, disaster, and escalation signal convergence
  • Country Intelligence Index — composite risk scoring across 12 signal categories
  • Finance radar — 92 stock exchanges, commodities, crypto, and 7-signal market composite
  • Local AI — run everything with Ollama, no API keys required
  • 5 site variants from a single codebase (world, tech, finance, commodity, happy)
  • Native desktop app (Tauri 2) for macOS, Windows, and Linux
  • 21 languages with native-language feeds and RTL support

For the full feature list, architecture, data sources, and algorithms, see the documentation.
