1. A method, comprising:
executing a communication mapping system that maps content of a recorded communication between at least two participants, removes extraneous content from the recorded communication, and stores the recorded communication without the extraneous content, wherein the executing communication mapping system maps content using audio-processing circuitry and a trained machine-learning model to identify a participant, to determine when that participant is communicating, and to determine content of that participant's communication;
obtaining, at the communication mapping system, the recorded communication occurring between at least two participants;
tracking, using the communication mapping system, when a participant of the at least two participants is communicating;
identifying, using the communication mapping system and while the participant is communicating, at least one content topic of the recorded communication, wherein the identifying comprises tracking a time within the recorded communication corresponding to the at least one content topic and establishing a general topic comprising the at least one content topic of the recorded communication, wherein the establishing the general topic comprises labeling each of the at least one content topic of the recorded communication based upon the participant of the at least two participants communicating the at least one topic content during the recorded communication and wherein the recorded communication comprises a plurality of general content topics, wherein communication mapping system utilizes a keyword extraction method to determine a relevancy of the at least one content topic present within the recorded communication; and
producing, from the tracking and the at least one content topic, a map for the recorded communication, wherein the map identifies content topics of the recorded communication, times within the recorded communication corresponding to the content topics, and times within the recorded communication corresponding to a participant communicating, wherein the producing the map comprises permitting access to a portion of the map corresponding to the at least one content topic and the participant, wherein the permitting the access to the portion of the map comprises utilizing a search feature of the communication mapping system that can access the at least one content topic from the plurality of general content topics of the recorded communication;
further comprising identifying extraneous content within the recorded communication, removing the extraneous content from the recorded communication and storing the recorded communication without the extraneous content to storage device, wherein the identifying the extraneous content is unrelated is based upon the keyword extraction method of the communication mapping system;
wherein the extraneous content comprises communication content unrelated to at least one general content topic of the recorded communication.
