Methodology for crowdsourcing water quality data
  • This report documents the theoretical background that is being used to pilot the concept of crowdsourcing water quality data. It explores the theory of change, citizen science and crowdsourcing, and provides a short overview of water quality indicator selection as well as an outline for conducting a crowdsourced water quality study.
  • The  methodology  proposed  herein  combines  empowerment  of  the  public  through  participation in  the  scientific  process  (citizen  science)  with  modern  technologies  to  collect,  gather,  and disseminate data (crowdsourcing).

and program design from the outset (Hutchings et al. 2012). The text lists the important
components to consider, potential barriers restricting long-term sustainability of the project, and
