The main idea of the project is to crawl recent tweets about two opposing parties and find the sentiments of the tweets to distinguish the tweets that are favoring the subject and vice versa. Finally there is another module that maps the tweets according to the user’s location information on the Turkish map and saves the map as an html file.
The documentation of the code could be found at "/_build/html/index.html".
Screenshots from the resulting maps are as following:
