Summary
Syria is Crowdsourcing Satellite Imagery Analysis to Identify Mass Human Rights Violations and as part of the first phase of this project, they are building a library of satellite images for features they want to tag using crowdsourcing. In particular, they're looking to identify the following evidence using high-resolution satellite imagery.
Description
The idea is to provide volunteers the Standby Volunteer Task Force (SBTF) Satellite Team with as much of road map as possible so they know exactly what they’re looking for in the satellite imagery they’ll be tagging using the Tomnod system.
