Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) systems and their interactions with Geospatial Semantic Web
2015With 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 ...

Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) is being collected worldwide and may be a source for authoritative data providers such as national mapping organizations. In order to evaluate the usability of these data as part of an authoritative dataset, it is first necessary to understand the quality and reliability of the data.

An Internet-based public participation geographic information system (PPGIS) is an affordable and accessible tool for citizens to provide location-based volunteered geographic information (VGI) in environmental planning and management. Based on a conceptual model, this study uses the SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) analysis ...

Volunteered Geographie Information (VGI) is the harnessing of tools to create, assemble, and disseminate geographie data provided voluntarily by individuals [6], and is regarded by the authors as an important component of Community Remote Sensing. What is currently lacking is a systematic framework that classifies the myriad of VGI products and sources.

Web 2.0 technologies including Public Participation Geographic Information Systems (PPGIS) and Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) provide methods for engaging multiple publics in public lands management. We examined the effects of sampling in a PPGIS/VGI application for national forest planning in the US.

Owing to the rapid development of geospatial and mobile communication technologies in recent years, acquisition of high-quality spatial and temporal information has become much more efficient and cost effective than before. As a result, many researchers deem that data collected by volunteers with little training can be used for scientific researches if
