# Dataset to support: Geo-social media as a proxy for hydrometeorological data for streamflow estimation and to improve flood monitoring

This dataset was published at the Computer & Geosciences through the paper `Geo-social media as a proxy for hydrometeorological data for streamflow estimation and to improve flood monitoring`. See [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cageo.2017.10.010](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cageo.2017.10.010)

The dataset contains:

- `tweets.csv`: The georeferenced tweets retrieved by Twitter Streaming API by using [crawler-twitter](https://github.com//sidgleyandrade/crawler-twitter) for the administrative boundaries of São Paulo city.
- `355030819A.csv`, `355030820A.csv` and `355030825A.csv`: The rainfall data (mm) provided each 10 min by the National Center for Monitoring and Early Warning of Natural Disasters ([CEMADEN](http://www.cemaden.gov.br/)).
- `streamflow.csv`: The streamflow data (m3/s) provided by the (São Paulo Flood Warning System [SAISP](https://www.saisp.br/estaticos/sitenovo/home.xmlt)).
- `Aricanduva_watershed.shp`: The watershed area estimated using ArcGIS and ASTER GDEM covering an area of 82 km2.
- `Brazil.shp`: Administrative boundaries of Brazil.
- `Sao_Paulo_city.shp`: Administrative boundaries of São Paulo city.
