联合国可持续发展目标（sdg）是实现可持续未来的愿景。可靠、及时、全面和一致的数据对于衡量可持续发展目标的进展和最终实现至关重要。来自公民科学的数据是可用于可持续发展目标报告和监测的一个新的数据来源。然而，关于公民科学对可持续发展目标指标框架的当前和潜在贡献的信息仍然缺乏。通过对244项可持续发展目标指标的元数据和工作计划的系统审查，以及对过去和正在进行的可以直接或间接为这些指标提供数据的公民科学计划的识别，本文概述了公民科学已经为可持续发展目标指标框架贡献和可以贡献数据的领域。结果表明，公民科学“已经”为监测可持续发展目标的5项指标做出了贡献，公民科学“可以”为76项指标做出贡献，合起来相当于33%左右。我们的分析还表明，公民科学对可持续发展目标框架的最大贡献与可持续发展目标15陆地生命、可持续发展目标11可持续城市和社区、可持续发展目标3良好健康和福祉以及可持续发展目标6清洁水和卫生设施有关。实现公民科学的全部潜力需要展示其在全球数据生态系统中的价值，围绕公民科学数据建立伙伴关系以加速可持续发展目标的进展，并利用投资来加强其使用和影响。
The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a vision for achieving a sustainable future. Reliable, timely, comprehensive, and consistent data are critical for measuring progress towards, and ultimately achieving, the SDGs. Data from citizen science represent one new source of data that could be used for SDG reporting and monitoring. However, information is still lacking regarding the current and potential contributions of citizen science to the SDG indicator framework. Through a systematic review of the metadata and work plans of the 244 SDG indicators, as well as the identification of past and ongoing citizen science initiatives that could directly or indirectly provide data for these indicators, this paper presents an overview of where citizen science is already contributing and could contribute data to the SDG indicator framework. The results demonstrate that citizen science is "already contributing" to the monitoring of 5 SDG indicators, and that citizen science "could contribute" to 76 indicators, which, together, equates to around 33%. Our analysis also shows that the greatest inputs from citizen science to the SDG framework relate to SDG 15 Life on Land, SDG 11 Sustainable Cities and Communities, SDG 3 Good Health and Wellbeing, and SDG 6 Clean Water and Sanitation. Realizing the full potential of citizen science requires demonstrating its value in the global data ecosystem, building partnerships around citizen science data to accelerate SDG progress, and leveraging investments to enhance its use and impact.
