Some ideas on water Is it urban or ..? Water quality and quantity Ground and surface water Hazards (pre and post event) Agriculture: quality and quantity What can be measured by citizens (smell, colour ..) Need for new sensors Which incentives work for which citizens?
WP: Water CO in Education Primary, secondary, tertiary School networks : CO approaches included in school curricula for Science and IT education Different levels Pilot to develop and test curricula
Water level measurement in high hazard areas Wildlife in/near rivers Do we need more water level/quality monitoring, where and why? Schools Anglers: fish stocks, What does water quality mean and to whom? What are water issues Which interest groups can we identify who have a stake in collecting and using CO?
WP: Sensor technologies development and testing Massive numbers of cheap sensors are preferable to a small no. of expensive ones. What sort of sensors do we have, are needed can be built, distributed? Quality of drinking water: from wells or piped systems? Animal and plant indicators? Birds, plants, bees (and bee-keepers)
WP: VGI a critical analysis WP looking at historical developmet What works What does not And why? Lessons
WP: Quality of CO Guidelines for CO and sensor use How to filter out good and bad sources Also bias due to specific interests What is the critical mass CO on demand for local crises
WP: Flooding Pre and post disaster Need one or more high risk areas for pilot Vulnerability assessment (historical event syrveys) Monitoring of hazard levels over time > early warning systems, event dynamics Use CO to calibrate hydro models Robustness Waste redistribution post event
Possible partners Geodan, Amsterdam Sensor technologies: UT, TUD etc Associations: Anglers, Bee-keepers? Environmental Lawyers ICLEI Water boards & local, regional authorities
