Citizen science: A new perspective to advance spatial pattern evaluation in hydrology

Julian Koch and Simon Stisen — Tue, 04 Jul 2017 18:00:21 +0000

Abstract: Citizen science opens new pathways that can complement traditional scientific practice. Intuition and reasoning often make humans more effective than computer algorithms in various realms of problem solving. In particular, a simple visual comparison of spatial patterns is a task where humans are often considered to be more reliable than computer algorithms. However, in...
