Tony Meeting Update

Today Tony and I discussed what needs to be proved for my research, and how to prove it. Here are some highlights:

  • Problems to solve:
    • Citizen scientists have little training which limits what they can do
    • Data collected by citizen scientists is untrusted and has errors.
  • Questions to answer:
    • Does cache-based training cause the collection of more valid data?
      • training cache vs classic ways vs (?) expert
    • Can volunteers validate information?
    • Can complex tasks be performed through geocaching aspects and mobile devices?
  • For next week:
    • Scenarios where validation happens a lot!
    • 3+ complex tasks we will have people do.
