COBWEB is a European Commission-funded research project that developed a generic crowdsourcing infrastructure called the Citizen Observatory Web. The COBWEB framework allows for co-design of mobile applications to collect environmental data from citizens. It provides tools for quality assurance of citizen-sourced data and publishing data using open standards. The project is working to open source components of the COBWEB framework and synchronize work with other groups to promote adoption of geospatial standards for citizen science data.
