This document discusses using facilitated volunteered geographic information (VGI) to visualize transportation patterns. Facilitated VGI involves using online geospatial surveys to collect location-based information from the public in response to a defined question or geographic area. It can be targeted to specific groups and is more useful for research and outreach than regular VGI. An example of facilitated VGI is a community trail mapping project, which can rapidly gather broad input from a large sample size, though it loses the personal touch of in-person surveys. Informed design requires understanding transportation patterns through methods like facilitated VGI.

- 5. Characterized by the use of online geospatial interfaces (geospatial survey) that allow the public to individually or collaboratively contribute information in response to a predefined set of criteria, such as an explicitly defined question, or limited to an established geographic extent. (C. Seeger) More useful than regular VGI in research/outreach Can be targeted to a focus group Or part of a random sample survey
