*Academic experience, in particular on OpenStreetMap*
*I have been working with OpenStreetMap directly and indirectly in my
research for the last few years. My main research interests and activities
revolve around the understanding of contributions and usage patterns of
various online communities. I have also worked on various studies assessing
data quality and its related issues. Select publications directly
addressing OSM related topics are found below. Many of my other
publications used OSM data or promoted the use of OSM data. For a full list
of publications and links to individual manuscripts please consult my
Google Scholar [1] and Researchgate [2] profiles.*
