Planet Four: Craters—Optimizing task workflow to improve volunteer engagement and crater counting performance (2019)
Journal Article
Sprinks, J., Houghton, R., Bamford, S., & Morley, J. G. (2019). Planet Four: Craters—Optimizing task workflow to improve volunteer engagement and crater counting performance. Meteoritics and Planetary Science, 54(6), 1325-1346. https://doi.org/10.1111/maps.13277

Virtual citizen science platforms allow nonscientists to take part in scientific research across a range of disciplines, including planetary science. What is required of the volunteer can vary considerably in terms of task type, variety, judgment req...

Comparing experts and novices in Martian surface feature change detection and identification (2017)
Journal Article
Wardlaw, J., Sprinks, J., Houghton, R., Muller, J.-P., Sidiropoulos, P., Bamford, S., & Marsh, S. (in press). Comparing experts and novices in Martian surface feature change detection and identification. International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.2017.05.014

Change detection in satellite images is a key concern of the Earth Observation field for environmental and climate change monitoring. Satellite images also provide important clues to both the past and present surface conditions of other planets, whic...
