Measuring volunteered geodata performance in the text-to-GPS linkage of field-captured locality records ...

GIS applications that link natural language text to geographic space using gazetteers are essential for managing spatial data in archived geological records. However, these applications face limitations due to limited gazetteer scope of coverage. Crowdsourced gazetteers often have global coverage, m...
