Crowdsourcing as a Tool for Spatial Planning in Water Resource Management

Citizen participation has recently become more common in water resource management and prevention, led to advances omnipresent and interactive technology. This scenario has provided a once-in-a-lifetime chance to capitalise on the efforts of large groups of volunteers. The importance of crowdsourcing in knowledge acquisition for water resource applications is the subject of this research. Our study compares crowdsourcing techniques created for water resource management and conservation, which can be used to optimise surface water and sustainable management procedures, using a systematic literature review. We present a road map for future water research that draws together fine-grained findings from previous crowdsourcing research to produce a high-level, macro-perspective of the crowdsourcing phenomena and its geopolitical significance, directed by our analysis.
