In the past years Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) has emerged as a novel form of user-generated content, which involves active generation of geo-data for example in citizen science projects as well as the passive collection of data via the user's location-enabled mobile devices. In addition there are more and more sensors available that detect our environment with ever greater detail and dynamics. The interpretation and visualisation of such information is challenging because of the large heterogeneity of the underlying multi-source data and the requirement of considering social context factors. The German Research Foundation (DFG) has initialised a Priority Programme 'VGI: Interpretation, Visualisation and Social Computing', which will support interdisciplinary research projects related to this topic. The coordination of this Priority Programme will contribute significantly to the sustainable establishment of this research network. Therefore first of all joint research questions and objectives have to be derived from the submitted individual project proposals. Secondly, the cooperation between different project partners should encouraged and supported, in order to work on synthesis and integration of research and development work. A third objective of coordination is the initialisation of cross-project application scenarios, as well as the support with the comparative evaluation of methods and software tools. The specific tasks associated with the coordination of the Priority Programme can be subdivided into software development, research, qualification and administration. Software development tasks aimed at assisting in retrieval and management of user-generated spatial content and the establishment of a VGI-repository as coordinated project archive for organisation and access to data, software tools and documents. With that a sustainable use of selected software modules should be realised, in particular for the development of cross-project applications cases in the second phase of the Priority Programme. Research questions to be investigated as part of the coordination project will deal with integration and abstraction of user-generated, spatial data from multi-sources with varying spatial and temporal resolution, for example also for a synergetic use of VGI with authoritative reference data. As part of the Priority Programme SPP-VGI a summer school will be offered on the thematic area of geographic information retrieval, text analysis, semantic interpretation and visual analysis for the qualification of PhD students. Concept and realisation of the summer school, as well as biannual organisation of PhD workshops are main tasks of the coordination team. Administrative tasks will further support the internal and external communications as well as the networking activities of the consortium.

在过去的几年里，志愿地理信息(VGI)已经成为一种新的用户生成内容形式，它包括主动生成地理数据，例如在公民科学项目中，以及通过用户的具有定位功能的移动设备被动收集数据。此外，有越来越多的传感器可以更详细、更动态地探测我们的环境。这些信息的解释和可视化是具有挑战性的，因为潜在的多源数据具有很大的异质性，并且需要考虑社会背景因素。德国研究基金会(DFG)启动了一项优先计划‘VGI：口译、可视化和社会计算’，该计划将支持与这一主题相关的跨学科研究项目。协调这一优先方案将极大地促进这一研究网络的可持续建立。因此，首先必须从提交的个别项目提案中得出联合研究问题和目标。其次，应鼓励和支持不同项目伙伴之间的合作，以便努力综合和整合研究和开发工作。协调的第三个目标是启动跨项目应用方案，并支持对方法和软件工具进行比较评价。与优先方案协调有关的具体任务可细分为软件开发、研究、鉴定和管理。软件开发任务的目的是协助检索和管理用户生成的空间内容，并建立一个虚拟地理信息系统储存库，作为组织和获取数据、软件工具和文件的协调项目档案。因此，应实现选定软件模块的可持续使用，特别是在优先方案第二阶段开发跨项目应用案例。将作为协调项目的一部分进行调查的研究问题将涉及从具有不同空间和时间分辨率的多个来源综合和提取用户生成的空间数据，例如还将协同使用VGI和权威参考数据。作为优先方案SPP-VGI的一部分，将为博士生资格提供地理信息检索、文本分析、语义解释和视觉分析等专题领域的暑期班。暑期班的概念和实现，以及一年两次的博士研讨会的组织是协调小组的主要任务。行政任务将进一步支持该联合体的内部和外部通信以及联网活动。
