We present work in the spatio-temporal-thematic analysis of citizen-sensor observations pertaining to real-world events. Using Twitter as a platform for obtaining crowd-sourced observations, we explore the interplay between these 3 dimensions in extracting insightful summaries of social perceptions behind events. We present our experiences in building a web mashup application, Twitris [1] that extracts and facilitates the spatio-temporal-thematic exploration of event descriptor summaries.

In doing so we address challenges in large scale crawling, processing of real time information, and preserving spatiotemporal-thematic properties central to observations pertaining to realtime events. We extract metadata about events from Twitter and bring related news and Wikipedia articles to the user. In developing Twitris, we have used the DBPedia ontology.
