-Since the resources associated with the Web 2.0 allowed people to publish content produced by themselves, there have been initiatives to gather geographic information produced by volunteers. In this model of crowdsourcing,​ citizens are seen as spatially distributed “sensors”,​ able to collect different data types through Web applications. However, challenges related to spatial coverage, quality and motivation of volunteers require creative and diversified solutions for the development of data collection instruments. [[http://​aqui.io/​themerise/​|ThemeRise]] is a framework for generating such instruments,​ designed to allow administrators to choose between multiple functions to gather information and alternatives to spatially represent events, phenomena and geographic objects. The framework also provides resources to recognize and value the participation of volunteers. The creation of resources for collecting information on multiple themes can be made interactively in a Web browser, without no need for programming. Please see the [[public:themerise-tutorial|tutorial]] for further information on how to use the ThemeRise.+Since the resources associated with the Web 2.0 allowed people to publish content produced by themselves, there have been initiatives to gather geographic information produced by volunteers.
