the proper functions of the USGS; (2)
will this information be processed and
used in a timely manner; (3) is the
estimate of burden accurate; (4) how
might the USGS enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (5) how might the
USGS minimize the burden of this
collection on the respondents, including
through the use of information
technology.

Abstract: The National Map Corps
(TNMCorps) is the name of the U.S.
Geological Survey (USGS) National
Geospatial Program (NGP) project that
encourages citizen participation in
volunteer map data collection activities.
TNMCorps uses crowdsourcing—new
technologies and internet services to
georeference structure points and share
this information with others on mapbased internet platforms—to produce
volunteered geographic information
(VGI). People participating in the crowd
sourcing are considered part of the
TNMCorps. In general, the National
Structures Dataset (NSD) has been
populated with the best available
national data. This data has been
exposed for initial improvement by
TNMCorps volunteers via the online
Map Editor (the instrument). In
addition, the data goes through a tieredediting process, which includes Peer
Review and Advanced Editors. At each
stage the data is passed through an
automatic ‘‘magic filter’’ to look for data
issues before being submitted into the
NSD. In addition data goes through
sampling for quality assurance
procedures.
Data within the NSD is available to
the USGS; as well as to the public, at no
cost via The National Map and US
Topo.
Data quality studies in 2012, 2014,
and 2018 showed that the volunteers’
actions were accurate and exceeded
USGS quality standards. Volunteer-
