CrisisVu announced the launch of its real-time social media monitoring and visualization platform with a live demo based on today's US presidential election.
The tool uses keyword queries to feed a constantly updating topic map that highlights new and trending topics. Clicking on the topics filters the list of individual tweets, which is also prioritized by a metric that combines influence and reach.
CrisisVu focuses on Twitter initially, but the company says it can integrate with other sources to meet client needs.
