The new Foursquare dataset

Foursquare released a foundational dataset that includes all places collected so far 1. The dataset includes many user contributed places, which makes it particularly interesting for social sciences and geosocial media research. I hope I can intergrate this data with the LBSN Structure, to better map different geosocial media.

I had a quick glance based on Dominick Weckmüller’s data upload 2. See the complete jupyter notebook with all graphics here 3.
