Abstract
In this paper we describe the potential for using
Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) in pervasive health
computing. We use the OpenStreetMap project as a case-study of
a successful VGI project and investigate how it can be expanded
and used as a source of spatial information for pervasive
computing technologies particularly in the area of access to
information on healthcare services.
