<abstract>
<p>Crowd sourcing geographic data is an opensource geographic data which is contributed by lots of non-professionals and provided to
the public. The typical crowd sourcing geographic data contains GPS track data like OpenStreetMap, collaborative map data like
Wikimapia, social websites like Twitter and Facebook, POI signed by Jiepang user and so on. These data will provide canonical
geographic information for pubic after treatment. As compared with conventional geographic data collection and update method, the
crowd sourcing geographic data from the non-professional has characteristics or advantages of large data volume, high currency,
abundance information and low cost and becomes a research hotspot of international geographic information science in the recent
years. Large volume crowd sourcing geographic data with high currency provides a new solution for geospatial database updating
while it need to solve the quality problem of crowd sourcing geographic data obtained from the non-professionals. In this paper, a
quality analysis model for OpenStreetMap crowd sourcing geographic data is proposed. Firstly, a quality analysis framework is
designed based on data characteristic analysis of OSM data. Secondly, a quality assessment model for OSM data by three different
quality elements: completeness, thematic accuracy and positional accuracy is presented. Finally, take the OSM data of Wuhan for
instance, the paper analyses and assesses the quality of OSM data with 2011 version of navigation map for reference. The result
shows that the high-level roads and urban traffic network of OSM data has a high positional accuracy and completeness so that these
OSM data can be used for updating of urban road network database.</p>
