Geocollaboration
Geocollaboration is a new strategy that favours the empowerment of neocartographers, as it allows the generation of data using GPS navigators, mobile sensors (such as smartphones and tablets) and collaborative mapping platforms on the web.
Geocollaboration:
Platforms for Edition:
OpenStreetMap http://www.openstreetmap.org
Google Map Maker http://www.google.com/mapmaker
Here Map Creator http://here.com/mapcreator
Platforms for Addition:
Wikimapa http://wikimapa.org.br
MapBox http://www.mapbox.com
Google Maps Engine Lite https://mapsengine.google.com/map
Google Earth http://www.google.com/earth
Google Map Maker http://www.google.com/mapmaker
MapBox http://www.mapbox.com (map published in the Geocollaboration FanPage on Facebook)
https://www.facebook.com/Geocolaboracao
Challenges:
How can we:
improve the credibility
reduce the uncertainty
of the map content generated by neocartographers ?
Solutions:
training courses
orientation to volunteers
revision of map elements
comparison among different platforms
