I'd like to introduce a new location-based game: Kort.

This web app motivates users to help improving OpenStreetMap (OSM) data.
Game-like elements are used like credit points and badges in a mission to
resolve missing spatial data. Kort combines the concept of gamification
with volunteered geographic information and is targeted to non-specialists.
Within three weeks more than 1,000 users registered and it has been
translated into 11 languages!

After having signed in with OSM or Google account, credit points (so called
'Koins') are collected by the players on a mission task. Examples are POIs
without a name, where users have to enter the missing label. All proposals
for solutions are then validated by other players. If a proposal has passed
validations (around 3 depending on error type), it is considered complete.

Data errors are downloaded every night from a project called KeepRight. The
data covers many parts of the world except for parts of North America and
others. The final task of integrating the passed proposals into
OpenStreetMap has not been realized yet. It can be done manually, though.
This an other enhancements like moderating campaigns are planned in the
near future.

The project has been implemented by two computer science students during
their bachelor thesis at the Geometa Lab of the University of Applied
Sciences, Rapperswil (Switzerland). It's based on HTML5, free (open source)
and it runs on iPhone and Android, and in Chrome.
