Machine learning for crowdsourced spatial data

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Recent years have seen a significant increase in the number of applications requiring accurate and up-to-date spatial data. In this context crowdsourced maps such as OpenStreetMap (OSM) have the potential to provide a free and timely representation of our world. However, one factor that negatively influences the proliferation of these maps is the uncertainty about their data quality. This paper presents structured and unstructured machine learning methods to automatically assess and improve the semantic quality of streets in the OSM database.
