IDRISI

IDRISI is the largest-scale publicly-available Twitter Location Mention Prediction (LMP) dataset, in both English and Arabic languages. Named after Muhammad Al-Idrisi👳🏻‍♂️, who is one of the pioneers and founders of the advanced geography.

All datasets are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

  • The Location Mention Recognition (LMR) datasets are under LMR directory.
  • The Location Mention Disambiguation (LMD) datasets will be available soon under LMD directory.

We processed the data to de-identify it as follows:

  • We do not release the the user identifiers, i.e., user_id.
  • We replace the user mentions (i.e.,@) in the tweet text by @0 of the same length as the mention length. For example, if the mention is @someuser, we replace it with @00000000.
  • We keep the tweet ids, i.e., id, to allow recrawling tweets for extracting more information, e.g., meta data, social network properties, etc. This allows developing LMP models that utilize different features beyond the textual content.

For any inqueries, please create a new issue in the repository or contact us via email:
