In Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and more specifically in Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI), users can actively participate in the processes of inclusion, change and exclusion of data. Therefore, quality becomes a central issue in these types of application, with the objective of verifying the correctness and consistency of the information, for example. In this context, this paper provides a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of the literature on data quality in GIS and VGI, in order to analyze several academic papers related to the topic, examining what quality dimensions are being analyzed and what types of solution are being proposed. In addition, this paper intends to make explicit what themes are recurrent in papers related to the area of data quality and what are the main challenges to be explored by the researchers. For the accomplishment of this work, a research protocol was implemented, which involved following the definition of a group of research questions, used for the subsequent selection and extraction of the data.

Examples of the use of GIS in public health include those concerned with examining spatial patterns of disease, analysing the potential impacts of noxious facilities on trends in morbidity and mortality in local neighbourhoods and the use of such tools in emergency planning and ambulance routing.
Chapter 2 Literature Review. 2.1 INTRODUCTION. The purpose of this literature review is to provide the reader with a general overview of environmental modeling as it pertains to GIS. Recently, this concept has become a popular subject in many science and engineering fields.
This article presents a bibliographic review on the evolution of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and their integration in the social sciences, which is important because the...
The main aim of this paper is to review the use of GIS-based measures in exploring the relationship between geographic access, utilisation, quality and health outcomes. The varieties of approaches taken by researchers concerned with teasing out the relative importance of geographical factors that may influence access are examined.
The systematic literature review presented in this study deals with primary research in the field of empirical GIS education research. According to Baker et al. (8, p. 258), this field of action can be defined as “research [that] focuses on how and what educators and students learn with spatial data, spatial analysis methods, and GIS tools ...
This article explores teacher training in geographic information system (GIS) and hopes to uncover the necessary elements required for long-term and sustained use of GIS in the K-12 classroom.
This review discusses recent literature on GIS and health care and considers the use of GIS in analyzing health care need, access, and utilization; in planning and evaluating service locations; and in spatial decision support for health care delivery.
In this context, this paper provides a Syste-matic Literature Review (SLR) of the literature on data quality in GIS and VGI, in order to analyze several academic papers related to the topic, examining what quality dimensions are being analyzed and what types of solution are being proposed.
In order to systematically realize the goal of urban planning and constantly promote the level of urbanization, this literature is reviewed for the applications of GIS in the past, of land management, urban and rural planning, traffic management and environmental management.
This study presents a systematic literature review of the relevant evidence focused on the utilization of GIS in indoor spaces. To this end, we searched in three scientific libraries following the PRISMA statement guidelines.
