> Each individual has his own intents, purposes, motivations,knowledge and skill level, tools
> No moderation and a minimal imposed data model
> Uneven geographical spread of contributor efforts

> No uniform lineage
> No consistent levels of:– Data and metadata completeness– Positional accuracy– Temporal accuracy
> How to assess data quality?

Crowd Quality
> A novel approach to assessing quality of crowdsourced geographic information
> Leveraging user and data dynamics unique to crowdsourcing:– User Rating– Feature version– Feature age and
persistance– Spatial Flux
