Full description
This dataset comprises object IDs for tweets filtered from the Twitter gardenhose (10%) feed from calendar years 2019-20, originating from "Australian" accounts. By this we mean, tweets from accounts with a location field or profile description that contains one or more of the following strings:
`australia',`adelaide', `perth',`melbourne', `darwin', `launceston', `hobart', `canberra', `sydney', `brisbane', `cairns', `wollongong', `geelong', `townsville', `toowoomba', `ballarat', `victoria', `queensland', `tasmania', `bendigo',`wodonga', `gold coast', `sunshine coast', `tweed heads', `queanbeyan', `maitland', `nsw', `qld’.
This list of strings was derived from a list of the largest Australian cities, towns and regions by population, as well as common state and territory names and abbreviations. It is not exhaustive, and it is recognised that the dataset contains tweets from non-Australian accounts, e.g., Victoria in Canada. This dataset does not utilise geolocation metadata.
Note that the dataset contains tweet IDs only, not the tweets themselves, and some tweets may have been deleted.
