VGI Topicality Geo-location Spatio-temp-oral Context Integrated Quality Score Implementation aspects • Sum of weighted scores: QS(VGIj) = ∑Ni=1wisji • Topicality: keyword-based • Proximity: next concurrent reported hotspot • Land cover: Forest, no-Forest, Built-up • Population Density: Risk factor • Information clusters: Similar messages or lone signal?
Conclusions • From Quantity to Quality • Integrated Quality Score • Credibility • Relevance • Build answers for information gaps • Build answers for decision processes • Who takes responsibility? Who is liable?
