A great list! I would further add the 2014/2015 report by Timo Lüge on the use of GIS technologies in Ebola response and humanitarian efforts, it includes some discussion of OSM and HOT, and how it relates to field work. Here’s the second edition: http://reliefweb.int/report/liberia/gis-support-msf-ebola-response-liberia-guinea-and-sierra-leone-2015-case-study-2nd
And a paper by Abdul Shahid, “The Impact of Crowdsourcing on Organisational Practices: The Case of Crowdmapping” — although that’s less focused on field work and more on general coordination practice. http://aisel.aisnet.org/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1165&context=ecis2015_cr Generally I think there’s still a knowledge gap once the work touches the field, not just in research but also in practice. In part because currently there’s no good feedback loop: it still takes a long time for experiences and stories to come back to coordinators. I’m told people love the paper maps, but they don’t necessarily report back. m. > On 8 Jun 2016, at 23:51, Laura O'Grady <la...@lauraogrady.ca> wrote: > > Hi Stefan, > > I’m currently writing a paper on OpenStreetMap and its application in Ebola > epidemics so I’ve recently been reading literature in the area of > crowdsourced or volunteered geographic information (VGI), OpenStreetMap and > disease mapping. > > I would divide your question into two parts: (1). papers that access the > efficacy of VGI via OSM and (2). efforts to combat Ebola outbreaks using > disease mapping.
