Volunteered geographic information (VGI) has been studied extensively within various contexts, however, generally focusing on isolated aspects of data. Therefore, we still need to advance the structured knowledge of the mechanisms that affect and support its creation. This article aims to contribute to the integrated study of VGI systems (VGIS) in order to enhance design processes that lead to a more...
This work addresses motivation for participating in volunteered geographic information systems (VGIS), which enable a crowdsourcing process to create information-driven value. VGIS, implemented by executing a project and its crowdsourcing strategy, are driven by online networked community participation enabled by a technological infrastructure. However, without community engagement, crowdsourcing,...
Geospatial mobile applications interact with local and remote hardware to connect various data sources. These applications are currently evolving to include crowd sourcing functionalities, for citizen participation. In this paper we propose the identification, collection and information exchange of smart objects their geographic information, facilitating connectivity and communication between citizens...
