Citizen science is scientific research with the participation of amateurs. Participants can provide computing power (and other resources), collect data, classify data, analyze data or sometimes participate more actively in the research. In other terms, one could distinguish between volunteer computing, volunteer thinking, volonteer sensing, volonteer gaming and extreme (participatory) citizen science.

The citizen science article contains some notes that were taken in order to prepare the project.

Below you can add new citizen science projects, infrastructure and software. Infrastructure refers to some kind of central service, or even a web site which centralizes a number of citizen science projects (for example Zooniverse or Crowdcrafting). Software refers to programs, code, tools, allowing to build citizen science projects (for example Pybossa).

Statistics



Actually this wiki contains:

33 citizen science projects
15 citizen science infrastructures
11 citizen science softwares
