Gazouille: Detecting And Illustrating Local Events From Geolocalized Social Media Streams

We present Gazouille, a system for discovering local events in geo-localized social media streams. The system is based on three core modules: (i) social networks data acquisition on several urban areas, (ii) event detection through time series analysis, and (iii) a Web user interface to present events discovered in real-time in a city, associated to a gallery of social media that characterize the event.
