DESCRIPTION:During emergencies like natural disasters\, technology/infrastr
 ucture failures\, or terrorism events\, before official governing bodies c
 an get statements out\, social media is the first place these issues are d
 ocumented. While million dollar sensors exist to collect data about the pe
 rceived severity of a disaster\, the voices of people in crisis are often 
 missing or distorted by algorithms optimized for profitability. I develope
 d a custom QGIS tool designed to map social media data during times of dis
 aster. This project’s aim is to better inform responders during crisis a
 nd researchers post crisis to visualize emotional topographies of a disast
 er in real time. In this presentation\, I will discuss the methods and tec
 hnical challenges of building a custom UI tool with large and messy datase
 ts\, delve into the underrepresented value of emotion in geography and eme
 rgency management\, and discuss future direction for this project.
