Location

You can use the Location parameter to retrieve tweets that originate from a specific geographic region. This parameter accepts a comma-separated list of longitude and latitude values. Each region is a square, defined by four values in the following order:

[Longitude West], [Latitude South], [Longitude East], [Latitude North]

For example, the following set of values specifies the entire globe:

-180,-90,180,90

For more information about how to select the tweets to retrieve, refer to the Twitter API documentation.

NOTE:

To use this parameter you must set StreamType=statuses/filter. The connector then retrieves any tweet that matches Language (if set) and FilterLevel, and at least one of the parameters Follow, Location, or Track. If StreamType has any other value, this parameter is ignored.
