Twitter and Facebook are huge social networks that contain a lot of data that can be used for sentiment analysis. We often find out that a particular area we travel to is dangerous, after asking around. However what if we could use social networking data like 'tweets' to find out if a place is actually dangerous? This paper introduces how to use social networking data, analyze it and use it for alerting someone in a disaster prone or high crime rate prone area with the help of smartphones using natural language processing and sentiment analysis.
