During mid August and September, Amin Mobasheri had a short research visit to Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science (ICMC) at University of São Paulo, Brazil. Last week on 14th of September, he gave a presentation about “Open Geospatial Data Quality Assessment and Enrichment. The Case study of Routing and navigation services for people with limited mobility“.
This talk included assessment of OpenStreetMap data completeness; as one of the most successful examples of VGI in Europe, and the existing challenges regarding the fitness of use of this data in routing and navigation of mobility-impaired persons.
The visit led to fruitful discussions and solid plans for future collaboration on OpenStreetMap quality analysis between GIScience Heidelberg and AGORA group from ICMS.
