Filter on Location for Incoming Tweets?

[Anonymous User]

Original User: jakc

I am using the latest Twitter connector for 10.2 and have it working fine when tracking keywords.
I would like to make use of the Locations field and enter a bounding box for a local region, but whenever I do, I get no incoming tweets.

I am using the bounding box for NY (as mentioned in the accompanying tutorial PDF), but when I then save this configuration, I get no incoming traffic (even after half hour) via the Monitor/TCP Console.  I have tried bumping the extent to a larger area, but still get no incoming traffic.

Have I done something wrong?

Out of interest, did anyone get the locations parameter within the twitter input connector to successfuly work?

I believe I found the solution, I did the following to get tweets from a particular geofence only.

1. Import the polygon as a geofence on the SITE tab

2.Add the same polygon to the Geoevent Definitions

3.From the Geoevent Services tab add a filter.

4. Use the following syntax below.

That I believe solves the problem.
