Welcome!
I am

University of Iowa.
My advisor is
Alberto Maria Segre
This is a mashup between
Twitter and
Google Maps.
I created it as proof of concept for my thesis on "Query Logs Analysis: Diseases Surveillance and Detection".
Every 25 seconds this page monitors the stream of tweets containing Swine Flu related keywords (e.g. "swine", "Tamiflu", "flu") and plots their locations on the US map.
Each colored dot represent a tweet related to a certain keyword. If you click on it, you will be able to see the author and the text of the tweet. Enjoy!
