Topic: Tourists in Berlin 

This infographic shows the tourists in Berlin. The blue spots shows the location and density of the tourists.  I also locate some famous places in Berlin ,this way you can see the connection between the famous places and the location of the tourists. 

The data is collected from Twitter database. Some twitter users like to report there location by some Twitter API. I presume the people who report there location and not from Germany are tourists. I select the geo-location of tourists and made a map of it.

I collected my data on a website:http://www.140kit.com

I searched the term "Berlin". I got some raw data and I select tweeters that sounds like tourist. 

I will send you the selected data to you by e-mail.
