Analysis Results of 20,000 Tweets from January 9th to 15th
• Location Information- 95% of locations came from geocoding a place name in
the user's twitter profile. - 4.5% were from a lat / long in the user's profile- 0.5% were GeoTagged
• Generation of Information- 11% were "original information", ie. they were not
retweets and did not contain a URL unless that URL is to twitpic.
- 13% were second person messages, basically retweets of messages that would have been classifies are original information.
- 75% were "mass media" tweets, basically just links to news outlets (probably sent by clicking the twitter button on the web site)

Senate Homeland Security Hearing on Social Media as Disaster Communications Tool – May 5, 2011
Situational Awareness
“The sooner we are able to comprehend the full scope of the disaster, the better able we are to support our citizens and first responders. For that reason, we must seek out and incorporate information provided by the public.”
