GroupCollaborate2: Interactive Community Mapping

This paper presents GroupCollaborate2, a prototype Participatory GIS for the management of 3D community maps which support the shared design of public policies by offering a virtual representation of the territory and by enabling the crowdsourcing of heterogeneous types of contributions, including documents, 3D models and comments, within focus groups. The paper sketches user require- ments and personalization opportunities for this type of application.
