Re: [twitter-dev] support for location filter of streaming api in India

Paresh,

The problem is that all geocoded tweets from India dind't have the country
field filled. I use geographic database to transform Lat/Long into political
boundaries information. The twitter dind't support most of countries
boundaries. But if you set a bounding box at Lat/Long India area, streaming
API will get a lot of tweets.

Cheers, Augusto.

Hi Paresh,

The Streaming API supports any latitude and longitude bounding boxes but
relies on Tweets being geocoded. If the quantity of Tweets being returned is
low it could that Twitter users in India do not geocode their Tweets, or the
devices they use do not support geocoding

Hope that answers your question,

[twitter-dev] support for location filter of streaming api in India

2011-02-26 Thread Paresh Nakhe
Hi,
I have just started using location filter in statuses/filter method.
Initially i tried with the coordinates given in documentation (which were
for New York) and it worked fine. I then worked out the coordinates for some
area in India but i am not getting any tweets at all. I understand that this
filter will return tweets created using geotagging api but i am sure that
atleast some people in India would have this feature enabled.

Is it the case that this filter does not work in India? I feel so because i
tried adding "location" to my tweets but cannot see any location attached to
them. What could i be doing wrong?

Thanks
