DARIAH-FI Online Workshop: Nordic Tweet Stream
March 14, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
DARIAH-FI online workshop about the Nordic Tweet Stream (NTS), Spring 2024.
Tampere University, in collaboration with the University of Eastern Finland and the University of Helsinki, are organizing a virtual event about the Nordic Tweet Stream (NTS), one of the digital resources developed under the DARIAH-FI research infrastructure.
The NTS is a multilingual monitor corpus of geolocated tweets and associated metadata from the Nordic region. Altogether, it contains nearly 74 million messages from hundreds of thousands of user accounts from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. The NTS data cover the period between January 2013 and May 2023 and were collected using the Twitter Academic API, which is now closed.
In this online workshop, participants will (1) get to know about the NTS and its graphic interface and discover what you can do with it; (2) learn how to apply the NTS to develop one’s research and hear what additional features will be added to the interface in the future; and (3) overall become familiar with the DARIAH-FI research infrastructure.
Prerequisites: Basic digital skills. No earlier experience with the NTS is needed.
