Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) systems and their interactions with Geospatial Semantic Web
With the development of the Internet, especially Web 2.0, user-generated contents such as “Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI)” have gained attention and generated a lot of information over the Web. This chapter introduces the basic information about VGI and presents that VGI (or crowd-sourcing) applications have proven useful for gathering and ...

Our contribution concerns the use of Social Media Geographic Information (SMGI) as an emergent pluralist source of information which may find valuable application in spatial planning and Geodesign. On the base of empirical research, the authors propose a tentative framework for SMGI Analytics in spatial planning.
