Rich geo-textual data is available online and the data keeps increasing at a high speed. We propose two user behavior models to learn several types of user preferences from geo-textual data, and a prototype system on top of the user preference models for mining and search geo-textual data (called PreMiner) to support personalized maps. Different from existing recommender systems and data analysis systems, PreMiner highly personalizes user experience on maps and supports several applications, including user mobility & interests mining, opinion mining in regions, user recommendation, point-of-interest recommendation, and querying and subscribing on geo-textual data.
