### Hypotheses
- PoI spends a lot of time in a location, posting media content with corresponding coordinates or location name.
- PoI provided their contact information for an asset, real-life like legal entity or virtual property like website or official company page.
### 1 step
Start with the following techniques to **get the list of useful sources**. This step will provide you with directions for investigations and hypotheses to test.
- [ ] [[SOTL-16.2. Determine Social Media Related By Geo]]
- [ ] [[SOTL-16.3. Determine Social Media Related By Interests]]
- [ ] [[SOTL-16.4. Determine Main Social Media Sources]]
### 2 step
Use collection techniques to **gather data, extract information and validate it**. These techniques are the most extensive, so select them based on the data sources and hypotheses obtained in the previous step.
- [ ] [[SOTL-16.1. Get Accounts By Location]]
### 3 step
If needed, apply the necessary techniques to **perform an analysis of information and a synthesis of the conclusion**. Often, on the second step, it's feasible to do it manually.
Additionally, you can delve into related weaknesses and functionalities in more detail if your case is complex and requires a thorough understanding of the topic.
