Volunteered Geographic Information: Towards the establishment of a new paradigm

Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) is user-generated content that is assorted with spatial coordinates. This position paper places VGI in the broader context of data sciences, underscoring its most critical properties, identifies its contribution to the emergence of new social science analytics for urban built environments, and presents some of the remaining challenges.
