Penn interactive map shows community traits built from more than 37 billion tweets

(University of Pennsylvania) Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania's World Well-Being Project sought a simple way to capture, explore and share community differences on a large scale. Their end goal: to provide individuals with valuable insights about where they live and offer comparisons to other communities. The result is the Well-Being Map, an interactive, freely available tool based on the statistical language analysis of more than 37 billion publicly shared, geo-tagged tweets and on regional demographic data.
