Purpose of the workshop
The COST Action WG4 (on the ‘Enhance the role of CS for civil society’) organised the workshop on lessons learned from volunteers’ interactions with geographic citizen science applications which took place in London, at University College London, on the 27th of April, 2018. The organisation of the workshop was further supported by ESRI, the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing WG3 on the Promotion of Regional Collaboration in Citizen science and Geospatial Technology and the International Cartographic Society association on Use, User and Usability, H2020 and the European Research Council. The collaboration of those key organisations and individuals in the field of citizen science and geospatial technologies shows the relevance of the topic and the strong interest to the broader academic community and the private sector.
