DMI-TCAT released as open source
Posted by Bernhard on April 17th 2014 @ 9:33 am
After about two years of thinking and coding, my colleague Erik Borra and myself are happy to announce that the Digital Methods Initiative Twitter Capture and Analysis Toolkit (DMI-TCAT) is finally available for download. DMI-TCAT runs in a LAMP environment and allows for capturing data in a number of different ways via both the streaming and search APIs, and provides a whole battery of analytical approaches to investigating tweet collections. For a more detailed description check out the wiki on github. There is also a paper (paywall, preprint will follow) that details the tool and the thinking behind it.
Post filed under method, paper, softwareproject, twitter.
Tech support questions will not be answered. Please refer to the FAQ of the tool.
