The good turn out at yesterday's symposium hosted by the Cooperative Research Centre for Spatial Information (NZ node) and the New Zealand Geospatial Office highlighted a strong interest in research on applying geospatial information. With crowd sourcing identified by attendees as a topic of particular interest for research, some of you may be interested in helping a student group conduct a crowd-sourced geo survey.

A group of students at the University of Muenster's Institute of Geoinformatics (Germany) would appreciate your help with a brief survey about photo geotagging. The survey is part of a study to learn the value of uploaded user-generated content (in this case Flickr photos and metadata about them).
