description This article reports the process of developing and implementing a timeline visualization of informational records about the pandemic of the new coronavirus in Brazil, the Timeline Covid-19. With the goal of preserving informational records in the form of news conveyed by media and journalistic outlets on the Internet, and to make information retrieval more accessible, we intend to contribute to the safeguarding of the memory about Covid-19 in the Brazilian context and its respective journalistic memory. The method employed deals with a manual collection of daily news coverage and whose curation sought to pay attention to both the diversity and provenance of the information, as well as its veracity. The production of data was followed by the entry of the same in a spreadsheet that allowed its chronological visualization and the recovery of its content. As of the acceptance date of this article, a little more than four thousand news items are already referenced in the spreadsheet, which was supported by members of the Laboratório em Rede de Humanidades Digitais (Larhud). Attending some principles of the "action-research" methodology, a practice commonly used in several Larhud’s projects, it also followed a previous exploratory analysis of the timeline content with the help of the semantic analysis tool IRaMuTeQ. Following conceptual aspects of Information Science applied to the fields of Visualization and Digital Humanities, we conclude this research report with the indication of a computational improvement to be employed in the parameters of the collection process and with the recognition of the relevance of Timeline Covid-19 for the production of humanistic and informational scientific knowledge about the pandemic of the new coronavirus.

Este artículo relata el proceso de elaboración e implementación de una vista de línea de tiempo de registros informativos sobre la pandemia del nuevo coronavirus en Brasil, la Línea de Tiempo Covid-19. Con el fin de preservar registros informativos en forma de noticias transmitidas por medios y periodistas en Internet, y hacer más accesible la recuperación de información, pretendemos contribuir a salvaguardar la memoria de la Covid-19 en el contexto brasileño y su respectiva memoria periodística. El método utilizado se trata de una recopilación manual de la cobertura informativa diaria y cuya curaduría buscó prestar atención tanto a la diversidad y procedencia de la información, como a su veracidad. A la producción de los datos le siguió su publicación en una hoja de cálculo que permitía visualizarlos cronológicamente y recuperar su contenido. Hasta la fecha de aceptación de este artículo, poco más de cuatro mil noticias ya están referenciadas en la hoja de cálculo, cuyo soporte fue realizado por miembros de la Red del Laboratorio en Humanidades Digitales (Larhud). Teniendo en cuenta algunos principios de la metodología de “investigación-acción”, práctica comúnmente utilizada en varios proyectos de Larhud, también se realiza un análisis exploratorio preliminar del contenido de la línea de tiempo con la ayuda de la herramienta de análisis semántico IRaMuTeQ. Siguiendo aspectos conceptuales de las Ciencias de la Información aplicadas a los campos de la Visualización y las Humanidades Digitales, concluimos este informe de investigación con la indicación de una mejora computacional para ser utilizada en los parámetros del proceso de recolección y con el reconocimiento de la relevancia del Covid-19 Cronología para la producción de conocimiento científico humanístico e informacional sobre la pandemia del nuevo coronavirus. Este artigo relata o processo de elaboração e implementação de uma visualização de linha do tempo de registros informacionais sobre a pandemia do novo coronavírus no Brasil, a Timeline Covid-19. Com o objetivo de preservar registros informacionais na forma de notícias veiculados por meios de comunicação e jornalísticos na internet, e tornar mais acessível à recuperação da informação, intentamos contribuir para a salvaguarda da memória sobre a Covid-19 no âmbito brasileiro e sua respectiva memória jornalística. O método empregado trata de uma coleta manual de cobertura diária das notícias e cuja curadoria buscou atentar tanto para a diversidade e proveniência da informação, como para sua veracidade. A produção de dados seguiu-se pelo lançamento deles em uma planilha que possibilitou a sua visualização cronológica e a recuperação do seu conteúdo. Até a data do aceite deste artigo, pouco mais de quatro mil notícias já se encontram referenciadas na planilha, cuja sustentação foi realizada pelos membros do Laboratório em Rede de Humanidades Digitais (Larhud). Atendendo alguns princípios da metodologia da “pesquisa-ação”, prática comumente utilizada em diversos projetos do Larhud, segue-se também uma análise exploratória prévia do conteúdo da timeline com auxílio da ferramenta de análise semântica IRaMuTeQ. Seguindo aspectos conceituais da Ciência da Informação aplicados aos campos da Visualização e das Humanidades Digitais, concluímos este relato de pesquisa com a indicação de um aprimoramento computacional a ser empregado nos parâmetros do processo de coleta e com o reconhecimento da relevância da Timeline Covid-19 para a produção do conhecimento científico de base humanista e informacional sobre a pandemia do novo coronavírus.
