Social networks as a data source for real-time emergencies detection

The article explores ways to geocode events and extract information about the location where the specified event occurred. A tool has been developed that allows you to extract information such as addresses and intersections from text messages, create datasets and perform geolocation for both historical datasets and streaming data. Social networks were used as data sources, where the user can select a range of communities to search for information. The entire process of searching for messages, processing texts and placing geotags on the map is fully automated.
