By interactive maps it provides users with the possibility to have a comprehensive overview of the sentiment analysis results about the main Italian cities, and with the opportunity to zoom-in to a specific region to visualize a fine-grained map of the city or district as well as the location of the individual sentiment-labeled Tweets. The platform allow users to tune their view on such huge amount of information and to interactively reduce the inherent complexity, possibly providing an hint for finding meaningful patterns, and correlations between moods and events.
