New data paradigms: From the crowd and back

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

Knowledge generation from citizens is becoming both more feasible as well as important. Data directly from individuals can be critical as it can add information beyond what is available otherwise. Crowdsourced data also is very amenable in open data efforts given the nature of its generation. In this talk I will describe several efforts in which we are generating crowdsourced knowledge from open data and using it to more readily improve knowledge in public health.
