I'm trying to research a topic and I need to get all tweets within 2013 and 2015 and a specific location for two keywords.
I tried to get the results via Advanced Search but I allways get no results.
I tried:
cannabis near:"España" within:15mi since:2013-10-07 until:2015-01-01
cannabis near:"Spain" within:15mi since:2013-10-07 until:2015-01-01
Basically, I have a database of scraped press articles sorted by date from a bunch of sources, and I want to know how the agenda of this news sources have an impact on the social media conversation.
I could do it over Reddit if it was the case for the US, but there's no Spanish alternative (well, we have Meneame, but the user base is very left-leaning and I think it will be very narrow).
So I wanted to either scrape the search results or get them via API, but It's not working, and AFAIK I can't do anything similar with Facebook.
One way to achieve this is by using Twitter's geocode operator. In the example below i took Madrid as a center and covered a radius of 600km around it like this:
(canabis OR cannabis) geocode:40.4381311,-3.8196196,600km since:2013-10-07 until:2015-12-31
Try it...
The syntax is as follows:
([your_boolean_search_query]) geocode:[latitude],[longitude],[radius]km since:[] until:[]
one easy way to find latitudes and longitudes of locations is to use Google Maps. Simply navigate to a place using the search box and then copy the latitude and longitude element from the URL line in the browser. Here it is for Madrid. The latitude and longitude are right after the # sign, separated by a comma:
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Madrid,+Spain/#40.4381311,-3.8196196,54451m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0xd422997800a3c81:0xc436dec1618c2269!8m2!3d40.4167754!4d-3.7037902?hl=en
Try it...

I've searched for solution for that problem on here-api documentation but I can't really find it out ! I'm starting doubt if this even possible.
Ok so basicly what i need to know for now:
1. Is this even possible on this platform ?
2. Using exactly which 'module' (eg. PLATFORM DATA EXTENSION,BATCH GEOCODER)
There is no straight solution to get all districts in a city since district concept varies from one place to another(country-specific). Still you can try one of the below options:
administrative-areas-buildings category in places api
city-town-village category in places api
retrieveAreas mode in geocoder api (apply bbox or increase the radius of prox parameter and see if it works for your location)
Search Text in geocoder can also be used if you are search for districts which match a regex
You can check if the above 1) and 2) are applicable to your location using https://places.demo.api.here.com/places/v1/categories/places?at=41.8369%2C-87.684&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL&app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg
I'm trying to search pages which location city equals to xyz.
For example find page Guiness in city = Wroclaw, it looks like this:
/search?q=Guiness&type=page&city=Wroclaw
But it doesn't work ?!
I tried many different ways.
I think the problem is in that the location is complex type, but I can't find in documentation how to search by complex type :(.
Hope help will came soon.
Thanks !
It's clearly documented what is possible with the /search endpoint:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/using-graph-api/v2.5#search
You can't use other parameters than outlined there. Either this would be
/search?q=Guiness%20Wroclaw&type=page&fields=id,name,location
or search for a place with center coordinate and a distance:
/search?q=Guiness&type=place¢er=52.231804,21.007973&distance=5000
I am looking to use Google Places autocomplete to help user search for places near him/her. When using autocomplete in the example below, I get establishment that are very far from the location.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json?input=pizza&types=establishment&location=37.340871,%20-122.029642&rankby=distance&key=mykey
I assume Google considers the popularity of the establishment in the result set. My question: is there a way to get back the list sorted by proximity to the location, i.e. "turn off" the popularity index? (and to get similar functionality to the nearbysearch with autocomplete) ?
Why not just using nearbysearch? because nearbysearch does not perform well when only part of the name is entered as keyword ( I assume nearbysearch assume the 'keyword' parameter is the complete word).
Thanks for your help!
I 've been trying to test the place parameter when used for searching post using the Facebook Graph API. However it does not seem to affect results !!
For example:
https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=coffee&type=post¢er=44,55&distance=1000
in the previous URL results do not change when I change the values of latitude and longitude (44,55) or the radius (1000)
Am I doing something wrong ?
I think the "distance" and "center" parameters only work when you use the parameter "type=place".
e.g. The two links below return demonstrate this.
https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=coffee&type=place¢er=44.270962,55.096039&distance=1000&access_token=[access_token]
https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=coffee&type=place¢er=53.270962,-6.096039&distance=1000&access_token=[access_token]
Once you have all the places returned, you could then do a further search on each place for their posts that contain coffee...
I am trying to figure out how to use the Google Maps URL format for sharing locations as latitude/longitude in an app that I am developing for iPhone.
Example: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=40.77407,-73.96675
This is a point in Central Park, New York. When using this on an iPhone, "Maps" will open and reverse geocoding will be done, resulting in an address on the nearby 5th Ave.
But for sharing a meeting point in Central Park, this is quite useless!
Is it possible to specify any parameter in the query string that will turn off reverse geocoding, so that the exact lat/long position is shown in the "Maps" app on iPhone?
(Compare with the result one will get when entering this url on a desktop, where the exact location will always be pointed out by a green arrow.)
I found the answer myself: Adding "loc:" immediately after "q=" will turn off the reverse geocoding.
Example: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:40.77407,-73.96675
Instead of a generic 'q', which according to specification is treated like a generic query
This parameter is treated as if it had been typed into the query box by the user on the maps.google.com page. q=* is not supported.
you could try ll or saddr.
ll The latitude and longitude points (in decimal format, comma separated, and in that order) for the map center point.
saddr The latitude and longitude points from which a business search should be performed.
The maps url scheme is specified here: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#featuredarticles/iPhoneURLScheme_Reference/Articles/MapLinks.html
