Om du har lyst å gjøre nytte for deg, er MapSwipe heller ikke spesielt krevende, men du bidrar til at bistandsarbeidere i felt får en enklere hverdag.
Oppgavene der kan være å gjenkjenne hus fra flyfoto, f.eks.

Mangrove forests are dwindling, negatively impacting biodiversity, flood resilience, and carbon absorption.
In a pilot project, the crowmapping app MapSwipe was used to map changes in the mangrove landscape in Mexico.

@hotosm.org is amazing. They’re one of the most global, grass-roots engaged NGOs I’ve come across. Building maps as a neglected digital infrastructure.
And people can micro-volunteer to help from anywhere using satellite imagery. Browser mapping tools & a MapSwipe app.

HeiGIT has been working with deep learning models and street-level imagery for some time, with the goal to contribute to “filling in the world map” by gaining high-resolution information about regions that are often scarcely mapped. This objective is especially important for humanitarian aid efforts, but also extends to urban planning and civil protection logistics. […]
