Abstract :
We present City Sentinel, an in-house built visual analytic software capable of handling a large collection of textual documents by combining diverse text mining and visualization tools. We applied this tool for the Vast Challenge 2011, Mini Challenge 1 over millions of tweet messages. We demonstrate how City Sentinel aided the analyst in retrieving the hidden information from the tweet messages to analyze and locate a hypothetical epidemic outbreak.
