Abstract:
Governments and municipalities need to understand their citizens' psychological needs in critical times and dangerous situations. COVID-19 brings lots of challenges to deal with. We propose NeedFull, an interactive and scalable tweet analysis platform, to help governments and municipalities to understand residents' real psychological needs during those periods. The platform mainly consists of four parts: data collection module, data storage module, data analysis module and data visualization module. The four parts interact with each other and provide users with a thorough human needs analysis based on their queries. We employed the proposed platform to investigate the reaction of people in New York State to the ongoing worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.
