Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Communities in the Okanagan Valley, Canada are increasingly under threat from forest fires due to climate change and expanding urban development into fire interface zones. The effects of forest fires are not always quantifiable ‘hard' impacts. The fluid and chaotic ‘soft' impacts can have a profound effect on the collective consciousness of the people living close to those fires. To make sense of these impacts and understand where and when these forest fires have taken place, authors developed and implemented a participatory geoweb tool to support citizen-to-citizen dialogue and tell the stories of these impacts. The tool was launched in 2014. This chapter explores the interlinked ‘chaos' that exists between forest fires, volunteered geographic information, and the participatory geoweb. It further examines how academics and practitioners understand the post-project and longer-term impact of participatory geoweb projects and reflects on how the contemporary state of its practice contributes to transformative social change.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
