Abstract

With the emerging of vast quantities of geospatial data, large temporal and spatial scale of data are used in geosciences research nowadays. As a lot of data processing tasks such as image interpretation are hard to be processed automatically, and the data process workload is huge, crowdsourcing is studied as a supplement tool of cloud computing technology and advanced algorithms. This paper outlines the procedure and methodology of applying crowdsourcing in geoscientific data process. And based on the GSCloud platform, a case study of Qinghai-Tibetan Lake Extraction task has been carried out to explore the feasibility of the application of crowdsourcing in geosciences. By analyzing the case, the paper summarizes the problems and characteristics, and advantages and challenges are also presented at last.
