  • Check literature - what do people say are the most predictive variables here? (eg, see: https://www.aaai.org/ojs/index.php/ICWSM/article/view/7361/7215). Check out Ingmar Weber's work

  • Check facebook ad documentation - what else might be relevant to explore?

  • Facebook only provides data if large enough sample within area. So if small buffer, won't get data. Explore scraping with different buffers to see minimum we'll need to use to get data.
