OSTMap

Overview

OSTMap (Open Source Tweet Map)

OSTMap development started as a project at the IT-Ringvorlesung 2016. A team of six students (and some help of two big data experts from mgm tp) implements OSTMap over a period of 6 weeks.

OSTMap reads geotagged data from the twitter stream. We save it to an small hadoop cluster (1 master, 4 worker nodes) running HDP 2.4 with Apache Accumulo and Apache Flink. In addition we have a user interface to search for tweets by a term search and a map search. The results are presented as a list or on the map. In addition we run analysis batch jobs on this data.

Technologies

  • we use Apache Flink as computation framework for stream and batch processing
  • we use Apache Accumulo as storage
  • Spring Boot for restservices
  • AngularJS, Bootstrap and Leaflet for the frontend

Modules

  • stream_processing
  • the stream processing app - reads the twitter stream and writes the raw data, the index and calculated results to accumulo
  • batch_processing
  • batch jobs over the complete dataset
  • commons
  • common code used by other submodules
  • accumulo_iterators
  • custom iterators for querying accumulo
  • rest_service
  • a spring boot application serving the ui and the rest services used by the ui

Services (tba.)

  • Sentiment Analysis
    • Sentiment analysis aims to determine the attitude of a tweet with respect to some topic. It should detects a positive, negative or neutral attitude of a tweet.
    • supports stream as well as batch processing

Compiling

  • to compile/shadowJar a subproject f.eg. execute "gradle shadowJar -p batch_processing"
  • both, the stream process and the batch process needs to be a fat jar for flink -> gradle shadowJar
  • the rest service is build with spring boot -> gradle build
