A new AI pipeline called GeoSense-AI has been developed for real-time location inference from crisis microblogs. This system integrates various NLP techniques, including statistical hashtag segmentation, part-of-speech-driven proper-noun detection, and named-entity recognition, to extract locations directly from text. It is designed for high throughput and low latency, outperforming standard NER toolkits in head-to-head comparisons while maintaining strong F1 scores. GeoSense-AI aims to enhance situational awareness during emergencies by providing locational signals at scale for events like floods and outbreaks. AI
IMPACT This system could significantly improve real-time situational awareness during crises by enabling faster and more accurate location identification from social media data.
