Assessing the accuracy of volunteered geographic information arising from multiple contributors to an internet based collaborative project. Transactions in GIS, 17(6), 847-860. https://doi.org/10.1111/tgis.12033

The recent rise of neogeography and citizen sensing has increased the opportunities for the use of crowdsourcing as a means to acquire data to support geographical research. The value of the resulting volunteered geographic information is, however, o...

One-class classification for monitoring a specific land cover class: SVDD classification of fenland (2007)
Journal Article
Sanchez-Hernandez, C., Boyd, D. S., & Foody, G. M. (2007). One-class classification for monitoring a specific land cover class: SVDD classification of fenland. IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 45(4), https://doi.org/10.1109/TGRS.2006.890414

Remote sensing is a major source of land cover information. Commonly, interest focuses on a single land cover class. Although a conventional multi-class classifier may be used to provide a map depicting the class of interest the analysis is not focus...
