Dataset Card for Dutch Social Media Collection

Dataset Summary

The dataset contains 10 files with around 271,342 tweets.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

[More Information Needed]

Source Data

Initial Data Collection and Normalization

The tweets were hydrated using Twitter's API and then filtered for those which were in Dutch language and/or for users who had mentioned that they were from within Netherlands geographical borders.

Who are the source language producers?

The language producers are twitter users who have identified their location within the geographical boundaries of Netherland. Or those who have tweeted in the dutch language!

Annotations

Using Natural language processing, we have classified the tweets on industry and for HSN HISCO codes. Depending on the user's location, their provincial information is also added. Please check the file/column for detailed information.

The tweets are also classified on the sentiment & subjectivity scores. Sentiment scores are between -1 to +1 Subjectivity scores are between 0 to 1
