Researchers and public planners need simple and efficient means to combine public data resources (Health.gov and GIS maps) interactively with other sources of geospatial data at a local level. Working with data resources currently is ad hoc, expensive, and cumbersome because there are no common schema or interfaces. Further, no systems combine immediate and subjective information with large-scale resources. We will design manipulation tools to merge data from different resources and enable them to be easily explored, combined, and visualized by non-programmer users. The tools promise dramatic improvement in limiting chronic disease, assuring access to health resources and improving quality of life in the built environment. This project will create a platform to combine and visualize data that will improve communication between researchers and policy makers. A further innovation is combining data from a facilitated voluntary geographic information (f-VGI) and with other GIS coded data. A prototype f-VGI will be tested in a community mapping application with smartphones capturing facilitated user input and location. When completed in Phase 2, the system will allow investigators to conduct health assessments, particularly with geo-spacial data, without needing special training or support in programming, information technologies or geographic analysis.

研究人员和公共规划人员需要简单有效的手段，以便将联合收割机公共数据资源（Health.gov和地理信息系统地图）与地方一级的其他地理空间数据来源互动地结合起来。由于没有通用的模式或接口，目前使用数据资源是临时的、昂贵的和麻烦的。此外，没有联合收割机将即时和主观信息与大规模资源相结合。我们将设计操作工具来合并来自不同资源的数据，并使它们能够被非程序员用户轻松地探索，组合和可视化。这些工具有望在限制慢性病、确保获得卫生资源和改善建筑环境中的生活质量方面取得重大进展。该项目将创建一个平台，将数据联合收割机和可视化，以改善研究人员和决策者之间的沟通。另一项创新是将便利的自愿地理信息数据与其他地理信息系统编码数据相结合。原型f-VGI将在社区地图应用程序中进行测试，智能手机将捕获方便的用户输入和位置。在第二阶段完成后，该系统将使调查人员能够进行健康评估，特别是使用地理空间数据，而不需要在编程、信息技术或地理分析方面的特别培训或支持。
