Citizens' Observatories & Crowdsourcing

EU R&I supports GEO projects on the development of citizen observatories for in situ measurements. They enable citizens to use new ICT tools, such as smartphones, tablets or social media and their collaborative power to collect information about their environment (i.e. monitor atmospheric pollution or noise in cities) and participate in decision-making. This information will be made openly accessible, when appropriate, through the GEOSS.
