ABSTRACT

In this study, the spatial distribution of Location Based Social Network data in Korea is analyzed. The key feature of LBSN data is that the contents, which are created by users, are tightly related to the regional features where the venues belong to. The Foursquare data are analyzed as a case study and the information of venues and tips are collected and analyzed to identify the regional features. The quantitative aspects of LBSN data such as number of venues and tips are analyzed with statistical methods. As a result, the urban city, Seoul and tourism place Jeju are the places that have highest number of venues and tips and the quantitative differences are clarified using text analysis method.
