Just Good Enough Data and Citizen Sensing
In this paper we address “Just good enough data” ,a phrase and concept that we use to address issues of accuracy in relation to citizen-collected data, and to expand the types of uses that might accompany these new types of data. “Just good enough data” draws attention to attempts to counter the reliance on high levels of measurement accuracy as the sole criterion by which data are evaluated. What different practices emerge when environmental data are engaged with in a more indicative register? What do these practices enable? And what other relations, connections and points of focus might “just good enough data” generate?
