SUPER: Towards the use of Social Sensors for Security Assessments and Proactive Management of Emergencies
نویسندگان
چکیده
Social media statistics during recent disasters (e.g. the 20 million tweets relating to ‘Sandy’ storm and the sharing of related photos in Instagram at a rate of 10/sec) suggest that the understanding and management of real-world events by civil protection and law enforcement agencies could benefit from the effective blending of social media information into their resilience processes. In this paper, we argue that despite the widespread use of social media in various domains (e.g. marketing/branding/finance), there is still no easy, standardized and effective way to leverage different social media streams – also referred to as social sensors – in security/emergency management applications. We also describe the EU FP7 project SUPER (Social sensors for secUrity assessments and Proactive EmeRgencies management), started in 2014, which aims to tackle this technology gap.
