A USER-DRIVEN SELECTION OF VGI BASED ON MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE QUALITY LEVELS [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2015
Despite Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) activities are now extremely helpful in a number of scientific applications, researchers and decision makers oppose some resistance to the usage of volunteered contributions, due to quality issues. Several

Towards a Protocol for the Collection of VGI Vector Data

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2016
A protocol for the collection of vector data in Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) projects is proposed. VGI is a source of crowdsourced geographic data and information which is comparable, and in some cases better, than equivalent data from ...

Using gamification to increase map data production during humanitarian volunteered geographic information (VGI) campaigns

open access: yesCartography and Geographic Information Science, 2023
Volunteered geographic information (VGI) offers a solution to inequalities in authoritative map data that can limit our response to humanitarian crises. However, sustaining voluntary contributions of map data can be difficult and hybrid machine learning-VGI (ML-VGI) workflows developed to encourage sustained volunteer contributions have been ...

From Volunteered Geographic Information to Volunteered Geographic OLAP: A VGI Data Quality-Based Approach

open access: yes, 2014
Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) represents a valuable source of information. At the same time this data presents new data quality issues such as credibility. In this paper, we investigate the integration of VGI in Spatial OLAP (SOLAP) systems, which allow analyzing huge volume of geographic datasets. By means of a real case study, we highlight
