The Meta-data that we get from the tweets enables
us to get the time and the location (using Carmen
tool) of the user. We use the same query terms in
retrieving the URL’s of top news channels. For this
purpose, we have used Alchemy API by IBM. We
can get the time field and location of the URL’s.
Using the data from Twitter and News Channels we
can group the places according to the time of hosting
and plot it on Visualization Tool, Tableau. Hence,
this application is useful in understanding the
relation between various countries and how an event
occurring in a country affects another country. Other
data forms could also be useful for analysis purposes
such as OLAP-based modelling (Kraiem et al.,
2015). Extracting locations could also be based on
more advance methods (Hoang et al., 2017).
