6. YAMASHITA, J., Seto, T., Nishimura, Y., Iwasaki, N., VGI contributors’ awareness of geographic information quality and its effect on data quality: A case study from Japan, International Cartographic Conference 2019 Tokyo, 2019.06, In many countries, geospatial data are typically provided by public institutions. Cities have been mapped using such public data. On
the other hand, the demand for geospatial data has been diversifying, given the requirements for mapping cities. To respond to demands for new geospatial data, creation of citizengenerated open data and volunteered geographic information (VGI) have recently become popular. However, the quality of such open data and VGI are not always guaranteed. The number of studies on quality assessments of VGI have increased in recent years. The present study aimed to identify OpenStreetMap (OSM), one type of VGI, as well as contributors’ awareness of data quality, and the relationships between their awareness and the positional accuracy of the OSM data contributed by them. The results showed that awareness or lack of the positional accuracy did not affect the quality of the OSM data created by the contributors. These findings suggest that the crowdsourcing approach might not guarantee the data quality of VGI..

12. JUN YAMASHITA, Impacts of a fixed link on creation of a bi-national urban region: A case of Öresund bridge, The 32nd International Geographical Congress, 2012.08, Since the inauguration of Öresund fixed link in July 2000, the number of bi-national trips has increased between Denmark and Sweden. However, it was not quantitatively proved that the Copenhagen and Malmö-Lund urban regions have been merged into a bi-national urban region. The present study attempted to reveal integration of the two urban regions after the construction of Öresund fixed link. As results derived from analyses on commuters’ flows, it was concluded that bi-national trips have gradually increased since the bridge inauguration, but a bi-national urban region is not created so far..
