Approach:

  1. Scrape Twitter pages in case we are not able to obtain the token.
  2. User twitter's search API.

Inputs: city and search tags (ambulance, bed, etc) API Doc:

I am thinking to create a per minute batch job instead. results will be a minute late but much more organised as we will be able to run analysis on them and mark them as duplicate also. We can work on data model in a way so that we have resources and then we have sources like - tweets - entry by volunteers etc.

For MVP we can just give data directly from twitter.
