USE OF CROWDSOURCING IN REMOTE SENSING ABSTRACTThe data obtained by remote sensing define the characteristics of the ocean, atmosphere and land. A wide variety of environmental research and Geographic Information System applications are carried out by processing these data. Despite the great technological advances in remote sensing, there are still various challenges. Use of crowds in data acquisition, problem solving and various applications are called crowdsourcing. Crowdsourcing can deal with most difficult problems by reducing time, cost and effort needed to solve them. In this study, a systematic literature review was conducted to investigate if the crowdsourcing has been used in the research in remote sensing. It is observed that the use of crowdsourcing in remote sensing is relatively new and majority of the articles regarding this topic has been published since 2016. Published articles also show that crowdsourcing may offer huge potential contributions to researchers to solve geospatial problems with more accuracy than traditional algorithms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
