Such activity has grown recently due to the proliferation of inexpensive location aware devices and an ability to share data over the internet. Recently, a series of major projects, often cast as citizen observatories, have helped explore and develop this potential for a wide range of applications. Here, some of the experiences and learnings gained from part of one such project, which aimed to further the role of citizen science within Earth observation and help address environmental challenges, LandSense, are shared. The key focus is on quality assurance of citizen generated data on land use and land cover especially to support analyses of remotely sensed data and products. Particular focus is directed to quality assurance checks on photographic image quality, privacy, polygon overlap, positional accuracy and offset, contributor agreement, and categorical accuracy. The discussion aims to provide good practice advice to aid future studies and help fulfil the full potential of citizens as a source of volunteered geographical information (VGI).

Quality assessment of volunteered geographic information for outdoor activities: an analysis of OpenStreetMap data for names of peaks in Japan / Jun Yamashita in Geo-spatial Information Science, vol 26 n° inconnu ([01/08/2023])

Volunteered geographic information (VGI) is a key tool for organizing outdoor activities as it offers a means to determine the locational information and names of places. To evaluate the quality of VGI, geospatial data generated by land survey agencies and other VGI are often utilized as reference data. However, since these reference data may not be available, other methods are necessary to assure the quality of VGI. In this study, we examined five trust indicators based on the inherent characteristics of VGI through an empirical case study. We used mountain names extracted from OpenStreetMap in Japan as data because there were almost no other VGI in the vicinity. As a result, we isolated three trust indicators, namely versions, users, and tag corrections, to examine the thematic accuracy of VGI because these were the only statistically significant indicators. However, we found that the prediction rate of thematic accuracy was very low. To improve thematic accuracy, this study recommends using the most accurate versions, applying correctly given tags, and considering the motivations and characteristics of the VGI contributors.

Automatic generation of outline-based representations of landmark buildings with distinctive shapes / Peng Ti in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 37 n° 4 (April 2023)

Distinctive outlines are the major visual characteristics that separate landmark buildings from their surrounding environments. The automatic symbolization of landmark outlines facilitates recognition and map production. As users often recognize landmarks by the outlines of their façades from a street view, this study proposes an automatic method for automatically generating representations of the outlines of landmark buildings in four steps: (1) extract outlines from street-view photographs using GrabCut method, (2) vectorize the extracted building outlines, (3) simplify outline shapes, and (4) symbolize the simplified building outlines in three dimensions (3D). We used the proposed method to generate test data with symbolized outlines for eight buildings in a real-world environment for a wayfinding experiment in which the subjects used the building representations to identify landmark buildings and evaluated their perception of the generated maps. The subjects successfully recognized these buildings based on the symbolized outlines on a map, expressed satisfaction with the manually generated 3D symbols, and reported the same or similar ease of building recognition using 2D or 3D symbolized outlines.

The task of matching addresses happens every day and is present in various fields such as mail redirection, entity resolution, etc. Our work defines, and formalizes a framework to generate matching and mismatching pairs of addresses in the English language, and use it to evaluate various methods to automatically perform address matching. These methods vary widely from distance-based approaches to deep learning models. By studying the Precision, Recall, and Accuracy metrics of these approaches, we obtain an understanding of the best suited method for this setting of the address matching task.

Towards global scale segmentation with OpenStreetMap and remote sensing / Munazza Usmani in ISPRS Open Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, vol 8 (April 2023)  

Public [article]  inISPRS Open Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing > vol 8 (April 2023) . - n° 100031 Titre : Towards global scale segmentation with OpenStreetMap and remote sensing Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Munazza Usmani, Auteur ; Maurizio Napolitano, Auteur ; Francesca Bovolo, Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 100031 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image optique [Termes IGN] bâtiment [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] données localisées des bénévoles [Termes IGN] image à haute résolution [Termes IGN] information sémantique [Termes IGN] occupation du sol [Termes IGN] OpenStreetMap [Termes IGN] segmentation d'image [Termes IGN] segmentation sémantique [Termes IGN] utilisation du sol Résumé : (auteur) Land Use Land Cover (LULC) segmentation is a famous application of remote sensing in an urban environment. Up-to-date and complete data are of major importance in this field. Although with some success, pixel-based segmentation remains challenging because of class variability. Due to the increasing popularity of crowd-sourcing projects, like OpenStreetMap, the need for user-generated content has also increased, providing a new prospect for LULC segmentation. We propose a deep-learning approach to segment objects in high-resolution imagery by using semantic crowdsource information. Due to satellite imagery and crowdsource database complexity, deep learning frameworks perform a significant role. This integration reduces computation and labor costs. Our methods are based on a fully convolutional neural network (CNN) that has been adapted for multi-source data processing. We discuss the use of data augmentation techniques and improvements to the training pipeline. We applied semantic (U-Net) and instance segmentation (Mask R-CNN) methods and, Mask R–CNN showed a significantly higher segmentation accuracy from both qualitative and quantitative viewpoints. The conducted methods reach 91% and 96% overall accuracy in building segmentation and 90% in road segmentation, demonstrating OSM and remote sensing complementarity and potential for city sensing applications.
