Hi,
My objective to save detailed location information for every tweet
whenever possible
1) determine & save country/state/city level information
2) Save XY coordinates of the tweet
I am processing firehose stream,
3) When "place_type" = "poi" or "neighborhood", state information is
missing, why is that so & how can i get it ?
4) Is geo:point coordinate going away ? i shouldn't use it ?
"full_name": "State Fair-Nolan, Detroit", "country_code": "US"
place_type=neighborhood
snippet of raw firehose data:
