Validation of Volunteered Geographic Information Landuse Change Using Satellite Imagery
Land use change monitoring is one of the main concerns of managers and urban planners due to human activities and unbalanced physical development in urban areas. In this paper, a combination of remote sensing data and volunteered geographic information was used to assess the quality of volunteered geographic information on land use and land cover changes monitoring. For this purpose, the ORBVIE...
متن کاملCharacterizing Volunteered Geographic Information using Fuzzy Clustering
This paper demonstrates the use of fuzzy clustering to characterize Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). We argue that classifying small areas based on variables related to the amount, type, and currency of VGI can provide a more nuanced understanding of the content. We present a classification of 2011 UK Census Output Areas in Leicestershire (UK) based on content of OpenStreetMap, using a...
متن کاملVolunteered Geographic Information and GIScience
What are the research questions posed by Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI)? Does Geographic Information Science (GIScience) appropriately address them or does it need to shift its attention? I discuss changes to current research agendas, propose an arising grand challenge, and outline some specific new research challenges for scientists working within and outside GIScience.
متن کاملA Qualitative Perspective on Volunteered Geographic Information
In this paper, we present a novel framework for qualitative spatial information managing, constituting an extension for Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and valuable solutions to several issues related to Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). VGI can be regarded from different perspectives; one of these is to see it as a means to use the broadest sensor network in the world: human bein...
متن کاملµ-shapes: Delineating urban neighborhoods using volunteered geographic information
Urban neighborhoods are a unique form of geography in that their boundaries rely on a social definition rather than a well-defined physical or administrative boundary. Currently, geographic gazetteers capture little more than then the centroid of a neighborhood, limiting potential applications of the data. In this paper, we present μ-shapes, an algorithm that employs fuzzy-set theory to model n...
