New Publication - Triangulating Social Multimedia Content!

In further social media news, my group at GMU has published a paper on how social media can be used to detect the location of events! Our paper, titled "Triangulating Social Multimedia Content for Event Localization using Flickr and Twitter", has just been published in Transactions in GIS.


A three-dimensional perspective of an example of wildfire location assessment.
For more information, please check out my advisor Andrew Crooks' blog post about the paper here or the paper itself below! Thanks, everyone!
