在科学研究中，再现性和可复制性是确保我们的知识体系进步的必要条件。这也适用于与VGI相关的研究。然而，VGI的特点表明，在确保再现性和可复制性方面存在特别困难。在这篇文章中，我们的目的是检查VGI相关研究的现状，并确定策略，以确保实现其全部潜力。为此，我们首先研究了可重复性和可复制性的不同方面及其对VGI相关研究的影响。这些影响因研究的目的而异。因此，我们研究了VGI相关研究的研究重点，以评估当前的研究主体并构建我们的评估。这项工作是基于对可重复性要素的严格审查，以及对58篇关于在危机管理领域使用VGI的论文的系统绘图和分析。我们的调查结果表明，与数据相关的可重复性问题是一个严重的问题，而与分析方法和过程相关的可重复性问题面临的挑战较少。然而，由于大多数研究仍然集中在对源数据的分析上，在VGI相关研究中，可重复性和可复制性仍然是一个未解决的问题。因此，我们提出了解决问题的举措，并最终制定了改善现状的策略。
In scientific research, reproducibility and replicability are requirements to ensure the advancement of our body of knowledge. This holds true also for VGI‐related research and studies. However, the characteristics of VGI suggest particular difficulties in ensuring reproducibility and replicability. In this article, we aim to examine the current situation in VGI‐related research, and identify strategies to ensure realization of its full potential. To do so, we first investigate the different aspects of reproducibility and replicability and their impact on VGI‐related research. These impacts are different depending on the objectives of the study. Therefore, we examine the study focus of VGI‐related research to assess the current body of research and structure our assessment. This work is based on a rigorous review of the elements of reproducibility and a systematic mapping and analysis of 58 papers on the use of VGI in the crisis management field. Results of our investigation show that reproducibility issues related to data are a serious concern, while reproducibility issues related to analysis methods and processes face fewer challenges. However, since most studies still focus on analyzing the source data, reproducibility and replicability are still an unsolved problem in VGI‐related research. Therefore, we show initiatives tackling the problem, and finally formulate strategies to improve the situation.
