Re: [twitter-dev] Selecting tweets based on geo_enabled

As said several times in this list, only Streaming API, with locations method, do geo_enable=true filtering.

Hi,

I've given this question a fairly long search and not found an answer.
In my first experiments with the search API I've been trying to obtain
tweets from a specific lat/lon's radius. The responses however include
those with geo_enabled = false. Is there a way to filter to obtain
only tweets tagged with an actual lat/lon?

I was thinking of obtaining first the geoid's nearby and then getting
the tweets near those thinking that they would need to be from
geo_enabled users. Also I was wondering if the streaming API might
give me what I need.

Some further playing around should yield an answer but if anyone's
been down the path already I'd appreciate some advice.

Thanks!
