Abstract

In the past few years, crowdsourced geographic information (also called volunteered
geographic information) has emerged as a promising information
source for improving urban resilience by managing risks and coping with the
consequences of disasters triggered by natural hazards. This chapter presents
a typology of sources and usages of crowdsourced geographic information for
disaster management, as well as summarises recent research results and present
lessons learned for future research and practice in this field.
