Crowdsource module for climate hazard mapping

The Crowdsource module visualises publicly generated climate data in a digital map. Finding ready-to-use spatial data on climate hazards and vulnerable locations can be a challenge. Local crowdsourcing presents an opportunity to collect this information through methods such as community mapping. Citizens or specific user groups are asked to map climate information via a questionnaire. The resulting dataset can be used to validate technical data or help to prioritise actions. Besides collecting data, the crowdsource module engages citizens and initiates discussion, helping to raise public awareness about climate adaptation.
