Classification of Building Function Using Available Sources of Vgi

Abstract: <p><strong>Abstract.</strong> This paper examines the feasibility of using data from OpenStreetMap (OSM), Facebook and Foursquare as a source of information on the function of buildings. Such information is rarely openly available and if available, would vary between cities by nomenclature, making comparisons between places difficult. Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) including data from social media represents new potential sources of building function data that have not yet been expl… Show more

“…With the currently available data, there are still many built-up areas having the mixed land use label (LU235). We plan to use data from OSM and the Urban Atlas data to better distinguish the function of buildings so as to distinguish between Residential (LU5), Commercial (LU3) and Industrial (LU2) land use types by following the approach proposed by Fonte et al (2018).…”

“…OSM has specific tags for users to indicate the building function. In a study by Fonte et al (2018), OSM data were extracted for a section of the city of Milan. By analyzing the tags associated with buildings as well as the points of interest layer, more than 80% of the buildings in Milan could be assigned a building function.…”

“…Other crowdsourced information can also be used to infer building use. In Fonte et al (2018), crowdsourced data from Facebook and Foursquare were additionally used to fill in some of the gaps from OSM regarding building use. Using only Foursquare, Spyratos et al (2017) classified buildings in Amsterdam according to building use types.…”

“…Following this license, copy, distribution, transmission and modification of the data are allowed under the conditions of attributing and, if data are modified, distributing them again under the same license. OSM has been widely used for different topics as routing, navigation and transportation studies in research and professional applications (Bakillah et al, 2013, Bakillah et al, 2014, Graser et al, 2015, Zhang, Ai, 2015, but also in land-use studies (Costa et al, 2019) or building classification (Fonte et al, 2018).…”
