GB1900项目在1:10,650幅覆盖英国的地图上转录了几乎所有的文本,出版了大约1900年:260万个地理参考文本字符串,因此可能是最大的特别是历史上的地名录。近1200名志愿者进行了550万次抄写,其中包括《确认书》。本文描述了该项目与在线志愿者的互动,然后介绍了他们的经历,通过在线系统本身记录下来,进行了6次深入访谈,并对在线问卷进行了162次回复。我们发现,与参加物理科学“公民科学”项目的志愿者不同,他们的动机是个人对地图的兴趣,对他们有意义的地方,以及这些地方是如何变化的。这些结论使我们能够为未来类似项目中志愿者的招募和保留提供建议。
The GB1900 project transcribed almost all text on 1:10,650 mapping covering Great Britain, publishedcirca1900: 2.6 million geo-referenced text strings, so possibly the largest specifically historical gazetteer. Nearly 1200 volunteers made 5.5 million transcriptions, including “confirmations.” This paper describes the project’s interaction with online volunteers and then presents their experience, as recorded through the online system itself, six in-depth interviews and 162 responses to an online questionnaire. We find that, unlike volunteers in physical science “citizen science” projects, they were motivated by personal interest in the maps, in places that held meaning for them, and in how places had changed. These conclusions enable us to offer suggestions for volunteer recruitment and retention in similar future projects.
