It is definitely something I will explore if I continue the project, combining time and location. I agree it is difficult to find locations for text but nowadays the NLP algorithms are more powerful than ever before so it is feasible :)

The problem is the references to locations in text are ambiguous. There are many places called paris (most of which outside of France). Many streets called Main street, etc. Also lots of articles mention several locations. Then there are lots of informal names for neighborhoods, people being a bit loose with boundaries, etc. You can usually guess the city but getting from there to e.g. street level or neighborhood level is a lot harder. Anyway, good luck.
