Abstract:

Based on geospatial data cloud(GSCloud),the application of crowdsourcing in large scale information extraction from satellite images was studied,and a systematic architecture of this paradigm was proposed.By performing an experiment of extracting lakes on Qinghai-Tibetan plateau from landsat images,various aspects of the paradigm like the incentive mechanism,task assignment method,task division and many others were explored.Results show that paying part of the reward in advance and assigning a task to a team instead of individuals do not help attracting more applicants and improving the quality of results.And the accumulation of talents is of critical importance to obtain high-quality task results.Since this paradigm integrates crowdsourcing and machine computing power,and it is generic,it can be applied in more massive remote sensing image processing work which requires much human intervention.

Key words: remote sensing image, information extraction, crowdsourcing, GSCloud
