As social networking sites are gaining populism across the globe, people are more enthusiastic about sharing their thoughts on Various networking Platforms. Facebook and Twitter have become a leading destination for sharing various kinds of information. In the existing literature the focus is to access the information published in the networking platforms in the real-time, and they do not focus on obtaining the geo-location of the user. Here we propose a monitoring system that classifies the tweets using some reliable techniques which can be used across the globe without any security concerns. As there is a lot of fake news available in the digital form, there is a definite need to access the user information and his geo-location metrics. In this paper, we have introduced Naive Bayes Multinomial classifier and a few other models which performs a spatiotemporal analysis. This study also identifies a comprehensive set of performance metrics which can access the tweet’s country of origin by using eight tweet-inherent features. The outcome of this analysis can be used by various cyber-crime departments to deal with the numerous cybercrime cases on networking platforms, and real-time decisive actions can be taken.
