Description: 
        # TTLocVis
        
        A Twitter Topic Location Visualization Python package
        
        ## Summary   
        
        The package TTLocVis provides a broad range of methods to generate, clean, analyze and visualize the content of Twitter data.
        TTLocVis enables the user to work with geo-spatial Twitter data and to generate topic distributions from LDA Topic Models
        for geo-coded Tweets. As such, TTLocVis is an innovative tool to work with geo-coded text on a high geo-spatial resolution to 
        analyse the public discourse on various topics in space and time. The package has the potential to be used for a broad range of applications 
        for scientific research to gain insights into public discourse.

        #Installation
        
        __Attention:__ Event though TTLocVis should run on Python 3.7 and 3.8, it was not fully tested under these conditions.
        We do recommend to install a new (conda) environment with Python 3.6. 
        
        The package can be installed via *pip*:
        ```commandline
        python pip install TTLocVis
        ```
        
        ####Windows
        
        After successful installation, the user must download the [*basemap* package] and install it manually via *pip*:
        ```commandline
        python -m pip install [path-to-the-downloaded-file/your-basemap-wheel]
        ```
        __Note:__ Do not copy the name of your *basemap wheel* from the above mentioned website into your python console! Write
        it out manually!
        The *cpXX* in the filenames refer to the python version you will use. An example for Python 3.6. would be the file 
        *basemap-1.2.1-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl* Remember, TTLocVis is developed to run only on Python 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8.

        ####Linux and iOS
        
        Download [basemap package version 1.2.1] and install it accordingly.

        ## Community guidelines
        
        Contributions to TTLocVis are welcome.
        
        - Just file an Issue to ask questions, report bugs, or request new features.
        - Pull requests via GitHub are also welcome.
        
        Potential contributions include ways to further improve the quality of the LDA topics in handling the noisy
        Twitter data and an improvement of the *loc_vis* method in a way that it becomes independent form the *basemap*
        module.
