Future of Crowdsourcing: Creation to Curation, Search to Synthesis, Content t...Gaurav Mishra
油
Three trends are defining the future of crowdsourcing:
1. Input: From asking community members to create original contributions to curating contributions that already exist elsewhere.
2. Output: From searching for the best contributions from community members to synthesizing contributions from community members into something new.
3. Focus: From crowdsourcing content like ideas, designs or software to crowdsourcing things like money, products or services.

Opening transportation data can improve cities in several ways:
Transportation - More people may prefer public transit over cars if open data leads to apps showing arrival times and delays, reducing traffic.
Environment - Less car usage may decrease carbon emissions and air pollution.
Economics - New apps and services based on open data can create jobs and commercial opportunities.
The document discusses examples of open transportation data portals and apps in cities like Saint Petersburg and New York, and argues governments should publish more of their transportation data to encourage innovation. Opening just 1% of local government data on areas like transportation could help cities and save public money.

A level-based approach to public transport network planningAndrew Nash
油
This document discusses a level-based approach to public transport network planning. It describes a traditional three-level system with regional rail, rapid transit, and surface transit. However, some cities have found that a two-level system with faster surface transit and more dense regional rail stations can provide similar coverage with limited additional benefit to a three-level system. The document also discusses how Zurich's successful two-level system is now facing capacity issues, and proposes solutions like differentiated regional rail services and "Metrotrams" to address this.
Social apps can help connect residents with transportation agencies to improve sustainable transportation. Such apps start simply by sharing information but can evolve to more advanced functions like crowd-sourced reporting, discussion, and collaborative action. Effective apps provide two-way communication between users and agencies and include back-end analytics to inform decision-making.
This document discusses using serious games to address transportation issues. It begins by explaining why games are popular and how gamification can be used in non-game contexts. It then outlines several types of transportation games that could be used to communicate information, encourage behavior change, and more. The rest of the document provides recommendations for game design, such as linking game mechanics to objectives and testing gameplay. It concludes by listing several example transportation games and referencing a case study on using online games.
